you're probably asleep right now but I love you and you're the most beautiful girl I met, inside and out. have a good nights sleep and I hope this puts a smile on your face when you wake up.
e85 is ethanol 85 (85% ethanol), I haven't seen it in Australia before, you usually find it in other countries.
I think its more common in Europe.
95RON is good for most later cars, European cars are apparently all meant to run on it for better economy and less pollution.
lots of cars that are 2000+ have a 95+ octane recommendation. I know my 03 Jazz does.
98RON though is the best as far as economy, performance and availability are concerned.

you need to tune your car andget injectors for e85

you'd need upgraded injectors and a tunable ecu like hondata s300.
not worth it for na imo, maybe if its a dedicated track car.

So if you are building a car, build it to suit E85 then you will have heaps of room for extra mods on normal petrol and reap the gains of E85 later if you choose.

E85 is good has an octane rating of around 106
It's only available at a small number of servos
It is cheaper than regular petrol however it burns 30% quicker
You also need to upgrade the fuel system components
