As a side note the Hayward station has had it's E85 pumps switched off as the DMS/CARB have tested the E85 and their tests have concluded that the fueling is in fact E56. Hopefully they get this situation sorted out in short order so we can all get back to having less distance to travel for our corn fuel!

There's still concord and Fairfield though! Just got some from Fairfield and it's $2.34 and tested well. Btw GST was able to pull 71whp and 91wtq from my car over 91.. Stock turbo, stock block, stock head with came dropped in. But not a Suby so results may very. It's the best thing to happen to my car since purchase. Makes more power, and drives 1000x better, smoother etc.

You will want to be careful with switching gases between say 91 and E85, any amount of 91 will drastically change the tune if the tune was conducted on pure E85. Typically we recommend a wideband with warning box for all E85 tunes.
Personally I wont tune a car that is running map switching between regular gases and E85 unless it has a Zeitronix wideband with warning box, certain exceptions do apply but are not the norm.

Fairfield and Davis are the closest ones up north.
I'm in Santa rosa and make a trip to Fairfield about once every three to four weeks if anyone wants to start pitching in and maybe swapping every other month or something I'll be glad to help out.

Yeah I get the crazy stink eye from people in sonoma county too.. But I drive an Evo so it's almost to be expected I guess. There's no conversion to speak of really. Just big injectors and a tune(wideband if you don't already have it).
