on a boosted car it much more sensitive to ethanol percentage and octane rating, so you rearly need the flex fuel sensor to adjust fueling timing boost ect very quicky g.

on a naturally aspirated car you have a much wider tolerance to work with so anything from about e50 to e90 is ok if you give the ecu a few miles to learn fuel trims

so if your sensible you can get away without the full flex fuel system.

obviously you will need to reflash to go back to petrol
