In boosted applications, you can pick up 50+ whp sometimes, depending on the tune and what power levels you are at. In stock naturally aspirated form, just not that much more powerful. Still worth it for a car that's not a daily driver.

Easy there hauss lol. I would NOT personally tune for E85 on an NA car, it's not worth it... to me. For those looking to set records for NA applications, it may very well be worth the hassle. Just not something I would do. As Derek stated, with boosted cars the gains are far greater.

It's worth it to me on an N/A car where I won't have to worry about heat issues with the #8 cylinder. It also allows for a slightly larger nitrous shot than on pump gas, if that's your thing.
