You'll need 50% more fuel at WOT and about 30% for normal driving. if your goal is a Number E85 is a great way to go with N/A and slightly higher compress from a stock bottom end and good heads.

E85 is cheaper at the pump (I ordered mine by the barrel from a guy in Indiana.) but you have to fill up more often. That offsets any fuels cost saving that most people think is going to be amazing.

I don't think E85 has any real role in a Daily Driver that's not looking for numbers or is not completely built but that's just an opinion.
