VW and Audi Flex Fuel E85 Conversion Kits

VW E-85 Flex Fuel Tunes

Bluewater Performance in conjunction with United Motorsport is proud to release the first of its kind for the VW and Audi community, Flex Fuel/E85 performance conversion kits. Each kit is designed to maximize the performance of your car while giving you the ability to run either E85 or regular pump gas. All without the need for a flash loader program or the need for you to change the tune with your cruise control switch. The software is built to automatically detect the fuel that is being run and switch to the proper programming on the fly. Also when you run E85 engine performance increases anywhere from 15-25% while engine/exhaust temps can be up to 270 degrees cooler.

The Kits Are Available Here!

What are the benefits of E85? 
105+ Octane Rating, Clean Burning, Biodegradable, Better Performance, Renewable Energy, Locally Grown Which In Turn Keeps $ Here, Less Expensive than Gas, Fewer Exaust Emissions

E85 is the term for motor fuel blends of 85 percent ethanol and just 15 percent gasoline. E85 is an alternative fuel as defined by the U.S. Department of Energy. Besides its superior performance characteristics, ethanol burns cleaner than gasoline; it is a completely renewable, domestic, environmentally friendly fuel that enhances the nation's economy and energy independence.

The horsepower a given engine has when using E85 can be significantly higher than gasoline when the proper software and injectors have been utilized. Depending on composition and source, E85 has an octane rating of 102 to 110 compared to regular gasoline's typical rating of 87 for regular and 93 for premium. This allows it to be used in higher compression engines.

Environment
E85 has the highest oxygen content of any transportation fuel available today, making it burn cleaner than gasoline. Fewer exhaust emissions result in reduced production of smog and a decline in respiratory illness associated with poor air quality. E85 also reduces greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide, as much as 39 to 46 percent compared to gasoline. Since E85's main ingredient is ethanol, which is non-toxic, water soluble and biodegradable, E85 is simply a better fuel for the world around us.

E85 and the Economy
As was the case in the early 1970s, the American motorist has recently experienced a new run-up in the price of motor gasoline. The oil shortages of 1973-74 were the result of an embargo; the oil charges of 1991 were the result of the Gulf War; while the price spike of early 2000 was the result of planned supply reductions which increased the price of crude oil from $11 to $32 per barrel. This increased price of imported oil has also been the primary cause of the U.S. balance of trade deficit setting record after record, month after month.

The United States imports over 53 percent of its total energy and uses more energy than any other nation in the world. The use of alternative fuels, including propane, natural gas, methanol, electricity, and ethanol, will all contribute to a reduction in the amount of crude oil used in vehicle operations.

Not only does using E85 help reduce American dependence on foreign oil, but because Ethanol is produced from crops grown in the U.S., it can also help stabilize commodity prices. And because E85 is a viable, home-grown alternative to gasoline, E85 provides competition, which is good for consumers.

In the near future, a wide range of waste products will be used to produce ethanol, further developing our national energy independence.Ethanol production is estimated to increase net farm income more than $4.5 billion. It boosts employment by 200,000 jobs and improves the balance of trade by over $2 billion.The pricing for E85 is comparable to traditional gasoline.
