I want to get an Ecutek Tune but i was wondering how soon i have to get it after installing the Flexfuel kit. What if i had my friend do an Openflash tune instead for the meanwhile before Im able to get to a dyno and get my ecutek tune. If i got an E85 tune with the open flash tablet will i still be able to run 91 octane since i have the flexfuel kit? Am i able to run one or the other? And with the OFT tune can i mix E85 and 91? Ive been searching for these answers but cant seem to find this information.
If you have the OFT, you have to run either the 91 tune or the E85 tune, there is no flex fuel. To some extent, you can run a little bit of ethanol mixed in with gas safely on the 91 tune but your trims will be very high and you won't get any performance benefit.

I would highly suggest calling your tuner and asking them what fuel to bring and how. For all intents and purposes, you don't have flex fuel until your ecutek tune is done. Make your decision based on what your tuner says about the fuel you need to have in your car when you come to get it tuned.
