im running e85 on my car. u need to run bigger injectors change out the fuel filter. the elements in the e85 with eat up the stock filter you need to run new fuel pumps and some kind of piggyback or ems to tune it.

It will over time eat away all the gaskets in your engine too. I would absolutely not run e85 in an is300 or any other car that is not designed to do so.
