Sort of....

Subaru Legacy GT (turbo 4cyl engine) with turbo and other modifications makes MORE HP on E85 (thanks to it's resistance to Knocking/Pinging) than on 91 octane fuel. :)

Handy!

On 91 Octane:

Bullshit. E85 is inferior in every way. We may see a day when it is the generally accepted fuel for American made automobiles but we just ain't there yet!!!!!!!!!

For the time being, I'll stick with 87 octane regular gasoline. I also am impressed with ethanol racing fuel for my race cars but that's a different story!!!!!!!!!!

It's inferior except in it's ability to withstand knocking. :D
