I would say you got it exactly right by going E85. Given what you already have…that is the best next step that will give you the most gains. I’ve got a very similar set up (Kenne Bell, cam, E85, ...

I definitely still don’t get frosted lines like that. I wish! I really haven’t measured the water temp but it is certainly cold. I am running about 10psi of boost and my IAT’s still run at around...

That long run of your belt on the bottom off that video looks like it’s a little sloppy and flapping around. Is it slapping against something down there? You may need more tension. These belts...

I assume you have stock internals except for cam? I would think you will be getting pretty close to the limit if you push it to 12psi. It certainly could work with a great tune. How long is...

Thanks for the input guys. I definitely need cradle bushings. Will probably go with the poly ones. After watching that video…I’m convinced my cradle is deflating heavily under big pulls.
