F it. I bit the bullet. Just bought the E85 upgrade. @Visconti - where do you want me to send my paypal confirmation info/dongle id to get the E85 map? I don't think the form we setup (if you're still using it?) covered e85?

13.2 gals... I've been working off of the assumption that that's correct but haven't ran it completely out of gas.

Does anyone have 0-60 times for an automatic with an E85 tune? My wife needs a new automatic car but 8 seconds 0-60 is a joke for a car with this much potential. If an automatic with an E85 tune could get under 7 seconds 0-60 I'd go buy the car today. Could Visconti add launch control to the automatic to improve 0-60 times. From what I've read the auto is slow because of the lack of torque at low rpm. I think launch control could fix that. Any 0-60 times out there for automatics with E85?

Launch control on the auto will be hard since i'm pretty sure they're limitd to 3k RPM when stopped. E85 should still easily do sub 7 seconds to 60 even on an auto, though.

Get your checkbook ready, think brichard has logged some and is down way under 7, near 6 secs, on just a pumpgas tune. Sure he can chime in but pretty sure he's an automatic. If you search 0-60 should find it.

He's a stick.

I love it, he's working on pumpgas, I'm working on e85. Been doing runs all day for John.

Ahhh. That makes sense on times. Thought there was a gear display on his dash for some reason that made me think he was doing his runs manumatic.

You can have a gear indicator on the manuals.

Yea the manual has a gear indicator as well which i think is awesome...as far as 0-60 times ive been getting 5.9-6.3 which i think is great for our cars. I think i can do better than 5.9 and as for quater mile im shooting for 14.7 or better..i believe john is going to update me with the 1/4 mile dash display and im going to test it out tomorrow to see if it works.

Good evening John,
Does the STG1 automatic transmission tune:
Control wot rpm shift points?
Speed at which the transmission shifts?
Any other things that would control the automatic transmission?
Thank you for your support, have a nice evening
