Also, while I was planning on only getting a boost tune from you, I am now saving to get the E-85 STG1 to hold me up a while before boost.

Amazing work John, truly impressive!

I know our cars ecu supports fuel level percentage...how about getting the dash to display that for the e85 guys so they know when its safe to switch maps because even tho we have a fuel guage at half a tank we are thinking 50% but its really like 65-70...not sure if it helps but i think it would until we get flex fuel..im on e and my obd still reads 27 %

Yeah that would be amazing actually. Cuz the fuel gauge sucks.

Not to get off topic, but whats the consensus on the fuel light? 3 gallons left? I remember mine came on and I did almost 40 miles like that before I decided to fill up. I forgot how much I filled up to.

2.5-2.75 on mine. If you run it until you can barely see light between the needle and E (needle below E) it's around a gallon to bone dry.

I figured it was something like that. I wanted to take it easy when it came on, but it's kinda hard when you want to have fun driving this car! hehe. I was hoping that this tune would help out a few miles if I took it easy... Of course I didn't!

I'm on 1.05 I think I am different due to my location.

I did tell John though I am happy to wait for the next tune since he is working on the racerom.

Do i need bigger injectors if i do e85 tune and everything else stays stock? I.e exhaust and intake.
My car manual does say that using fuel with more than 10%+ E85 does damage the fuelpump, injectors etc

I drove for like 30 miles with my gauge at this location. Put in a gallon, drove 20 miles and did 30 something dyno runs. No sign of an empty tank. What does the manual state is the tank capacity?

Same thing with my car...my fuel level meter is where urs it at right now and my fuel level percentage based on the obd2 is around 18% which means theres still 2.4 gallons left in the tank which means the car is good for about another 50 miles until u are bone dry
