Is it worth it..cause I mean with the gas prices where they are at and where e85 is at only 3.30 a gallon Im seriously thinkin bout doing it..what do you guys think? It burns 27% quicker than 91 and it's the equivalent of 108 octane plus I plan on eventually going boosted so I might's well get my fuel system outta the wAy

Depends on what you want to use the car for. I was going to use it for a race fuel but decided against it due to lack of availability.

cost wise it will work out to be the same since you will be going through it faster. it is "safer" when tuning aggressively and the motor will run a lot cooler but you will need 30-40% more fuel vs normal gas with the same tune.
