Looks like others already answered your question, but mainly, knock resistance. You can run more timing, more boost, and push the engine further. As noted though, it does take more fuel to do so.So I have a stupid question - E85 (ethanol) appears to have a lower power/gallon output (I'm not sure what the right way to phrase that is) - meaning, it takes more gas to do the same amount of work - i.e. - your MPG will go down using E85. So why is E85 a "high performance" thing? I must be missing something.
