Hi all. I am new to the forum I recently inherited my dad's 2006 300C 5.7L. He was the original owner and its running strong at 160k.
Recently I bought an Alternative Performance Engineering E85 FlexFuel kit for my 2006 300C 5.7L and installed it. I love E85 and run it in all of my vehicles. The two big reasons why are: 1. more HP and 2. cheaper per mile. In full disclosure A.P.E. gave me a small discount on the flex fuel kit so I could do a review and post about it. Otherwise I bought it with my own money. I looked around at other options and decided the A.P.E. kit was the best for the 300C.
I made a video in which I tested the 0-60 and 1/4 mile times of my car before and after switching to E85. No other mods were done and I dropped almost .5 seconds from my 0-60 and consistent gains in the 1/4.
I calculated that on 91 octane premium gas I can get 21 MPG and it costs me 22 cents per mile. On E85 if I get 16 MPG it costs me 18 cents per mile, AND it's faster! Win win!
Check out my video below for the full story. I know E85 can sometimes be controversial but for me I love it. I have over 150,000 miles on E85 in various vehicles and I love using it.
