so in reading some of the posts on e85
I haven't quite come to the conclusion that it can be run in a unmodified 951..it seems that those who are currently using it have some serious upgrades
Mine has an old upgraded chip and cat back exhaust..any input?

You need a method of monitoring and controling your fuel.
A WBO2 and adjustable fuel pressure regulator at the minimum.

Yes everything you spec'd will work fine.
To eliminate research. Since it is somewhat spread among threads.
1) just for precaution replace fuel lines, more for age.
2) setup your fuel setup with about 25% more fuel across the board
3) go to a dyno or use a wideband
4) drive or dyno and try to get the cruise to be about 13.5-14:1.
5) get the AF to be ~ 11:1 at full boost
6) if you have timing control; you can add a little bit for part throttle and spoolup maybe even at full boost (not determined yet)
7) once you get the power in safe AF ratio you can play with tuning the idle and cruise to even a higher ratio
these are all std fuel lambda scaling for ease of reference
Just remember: everyone is responsible for making sure they take care to keep the tune safe. I take no responsibility for others vehicles and any damage resulting in failures. With that said it is pretty easy and very forgiving.

Can I do that? Those of you that are not being modern jackass's Could I do this with what I was planning on above?
Where can i research more what I would need to do?
