There is a huge misunderstanding on here as to why a "stock" brz/frs can't use E85.
It can't be used on a stock tune or the settings in the cars engine computer from the factory. These settings can be adjusted by a "tuner... think... visconti here". The tuner will have to re-scale your injectors back 30% in order for the engine to run properly. What this will do is adjust your afr or air fuel ratios back to where they need to be, in order to idle/accelerate properly.
The other benefit of e85 is the higher octane rating. This will allow the tuner to advance the engines ignition timing which will result in more power.
Hope this helps
