So I made my apt with my tuner for an E85 tune on April 8th. I already have 1000cc injectors and a fuel pump. He needs me to bring about 15 gallons with me and his shop is just outside Boston. My question is what stations around the beginning the april have the closest to E85 since I know most stations are still on winter blend. ---

probably none of them in early April. You can buy some e98 & mix it as long as you or the tuner has a test kit. How much power are you looking to make? what pump? fyi the sunoco in glenville currently has e75 (tested last week) I would assume most gas stations in the NE to be same :pop ---

with evox can you have flex fuel tune? so you can run either e85 or 93? or both mixed? ---

I’m getting tuned on just e85 but he could duel map me if I wanted to. I wouldn’t be able to just throw in whatever fuel I wanted. If I had a duel map tune I would have to flash the ecu with a custom 93 map to go back on pump ---

E85 and 93 gotta have two different tune/maps. I dont know what engene management u using but u can make a switch botton for each type of fuel. Or get a separate fuel sell for e85 that can also be triggered of a switch botton for your high boost. Probably your best option since E85 eats your fuel system out due to alcohol level. How much high boost you planing to run on E85? ---

yeah, i usually get it from there on the weekends and i also get it up on rt 50 sunoco after work durring the week. i love having my cobra as a daily on e85. it runs so much smoother. gas milage sucks on e85 but its well worth the trade off in power and safety. just test it as much as you can to be safe. ---
