E85, what are the best supporting mods?

I want to get my FR-S flex fueled to run E85 by the end of this year. I was wondering what are the best supporting mods to get the most out of flex fueling my car.

Sorry if this has been discussed, nothing came up when searching for threads about this.

Looks like ol @GenRuleAThumb got it covered there........

I would suspect that a header and associated exhaust parts plus a tune would get you going along pretty good .......

Headers + tune, for biggest gain. and if you don't mind noise take off the cat on the front pipe too and you can get a HKS dual resonated front pipe to minimize noise I suppose. All cats are gone now and you have free flow exhaust with E85.
