Gas mileage running E85 is pretty bad. That said, I am probably driving even more aggressively with E85 than premium but I would guess my mpg has gone from 15 mpg to 11 mpg. I am not sure if getting a Dorch 2 will do anything but make this worse. That is unless the guys at MHD can work some magic with a custom tune. Given the scarcity of E85 fuel if I were to take a road trip I am feeling somewhat conflicted about the whole endeavor. That said, premium fuel prices are so goddamn nuts in CA (6.69 a gallon) that I am still probably saving on the margin but their ain't no free lunch in any of this.
