In a world where Flex Fuel conversions are a rarity, Adam LZ and his team embark on a daring mission to unlock the hidden power potential of a Porsche 964. Curiosity fuels their quest as they delve into the intricacies of upgrading the fuel system to be E85 compatible. Vibrant adapters and AN lines become their tools of choice as they tackle the challenge of modernizing the aging fuel lines. While Johan works on the lines, Adam dives into the realm of fuel pumps, exploring options like DW's 350 ilil for the ethanol upgrade. The roar of the pumps becomes music to their ears as they prepare to unleash the beast within the Porsche.
Tech tuner Freddy joins the fray, shedding light on the crucial wiring requirements for the upgraded fuel pump. With discussions on injector sizes and tuning strategies, the team fine-tunes their approach to ensure maximum performance gains. Oversized injectors are chosen for the task, setting the stage for a power surge that promises to shake the very foundations of the Porsche world. As the car undergoes a meticulous retuning process on pump gas, anticipation builds for the moment when E85 will flow through its veins.
The installation of a flex fuel sensor marks a pivotal moment in the project, signaling the imminent transition to a new era of performance. With Freddy at the helm, the car is meticulously tuned to perfection, each tweak aimed at unleashing the full potential of the upgraded fuel system. As the final pieces fall into place, Adam's excitement is palpable, fueled by the prospect of running Ignite Red 90% ethanol. The stage is set for a symphony of power, where the roar of the engine will echo the triumph of innovation and determination.
