What is the E85 Cutversion Kit from Cutversion Technologies?

The E85 Cutversion Kit will allow you to take advantage of all the benefits of ethanol (E85) by transforming your gasoline fuel injected vehicle into a true flexfuel vehicle. After installing our E85 Cutversion Kit, you will be able to use gasoline, ethanol (E85), or any combination of both. The best part is that the system adjusts automatically; you are not required to monitor any switches or lights - just plug it in and go!

What is E85?

E85 stands for 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline. Ethanol is an alternative fuel that can be made from a number of renewable sources: corn, sugarcane, switch grass, and many other types of biomass.

Ethanol has actually been around for a very long time - Henry Ford designed the original Model T to run on ethanol back in 1908.

Why would I want to use E85 in my car or truck?

There are many advantages to using E85 in your vehicle, especially if you are interested in high performance:

• Increased Horsepower - E85 has an octane rating of 105
• E85 has a cooling effect in an engine's combustion chamber which means:
  • Higher boost in superchargers
  • Higher boost in turbos
• E85 will save you money at the pump over regular unleaded gas (15-40%), and if you run on premium unleaded gas it will save you even more (20-45%) - click here for E85 prices across the country
• Availability of E85 is spreading and is more than likely in your area right now - click here for locations
• E85 burns much cleaner so you will not only be helping your engine and your wallet, you will be helping the environment as well
• E85 is produced right here in the USA. Stop spending your hard earned American dollars on imported foreign oil

How does the E85 Cutversion Kit work?

The idea is simple: the kit modifies the signal that is sent from the vehicle's ECU to the fuel injectors so that the proper fuel mixture is delivered to the combustion chamber.

The kit's advanced circuitry is OBD-II certified which ensures that no check engine lights or errors occur with your vehicle's computer & fuel systems.

How easy is it to install the E85 Cutversion Kit, and will I need to make any other modifications to my engine?

The E85 Cutversion Kit is very easy to install - just mount it in any convenient location under the hood (away from extreme heat if possible), and attach your vehicle's existing fuel injector connectors to the kit's wire harness. It's a simple plug and play system - you will not need to make any other modifications.

Will using E85 harm any of my fuel system's components

All modern gasoline fuel injected engines are already ethanol compliant; you are probably burning 10% ethanol (E10) in your vehicle right now. There are a lot of myths surrounding ethanol, mainly stemming from the introduction of gasahol during the oil crisis of the 1970s. Since then, auto manufacturers have designed their vehicles to be able to handle ethanol.

Can I still use gasoline after I have installed the E85 Cutversion Kit?

Yes. Once the E85 Cutversion Kit is installed, you will be able to use E85, gas, or any combination of both. The advanced circuitry in the kit will adjust for whatever the fuel mixture may be. No switches, no lights, and nothing to worry about. Just plug it in and go!

Where can I find E85?

E85 pumps can be found at over 1500 locations across the United States. To check for a location near you please visit: E85refueling.com

Is ethanol used in Motorsports today?

Yes. The IndyCar series has been using 100% ethanol since 2007. In the 2008 season of the American LeMans series, both the Corvette Racing and Aston Martin (Drayson-Barwell) Racing Teams will be running on E85 (click here for the fact sheet).
