I recommend getting an OFT used. They sell for around $450 on the forum. I'm on my 3rd tank and I'd rather blow up my engine than to go back to petrol! Kidding, not kidding.

So a new station opened up decently close to me that has E85. As it's so cheap, and I hear of people LOVING it for the FRS/BRZ, I decided I'd ask how much it would benefit my car, 2013 Scion FRS with 50k miles.

I don't have a Flex Fuel Kit, or a Tune, but I do want the extra all mighty E85 boost I've been hearing about.

Can I put E85 in my car without a Flex Fuel Kit or a tune for it and not have bad long term effects on my car?

Thanks!

Any other information about E85 would be much appreciated.
You will get CEL for running E85 without a tune.

I was reading the owner's manual last night trying to find idle speed and came across the section about E85. The manual said not to use anything more than 10%. Is it a tuning issue or an incompatibility issue? Either way, seems it would be a warranty denial issue...

Tuning and hardware. Car has no ethanol content sensor so it has no idea what E% it's getting.
