Maybe you already did lol.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the forum and your ride. Looking to splurge on an OFt and go e85 soon myself!

Sorry forgot to add the mileage,

my car currently has 15,000 miles on it. I ran a full tank of 93 on the oft stage one tune initially and followed the proper flash procedure when going e85 and have had no issues at all. Did it really make that much of difference? Nah. I was actually debating going back to 93 for just convienence sake but the overall tune compared to stock did make a big improvement. Plus the default launch control is addictive for tire shredding launches in this bone stock car.

Awesome!

So for you, between stage 1 93 octane and e85 it wasn't a big jump? There are some stations near to me, but I haven't seen many more besides those. I may end up on the 93 tune as well, so that's good to hear.

There is a noticeable difference from stock to stage 1 93, but don't expect it to blow you away. We are dealing with 160hp cars here...

I think there are some benefits to the e85 tune as it has generally better cooling properties and less knock (i'm no expert)

I think maybe I didn't notice a difference between the oft stage 1 and two (e85) in comparision to the stage 1 tune from stock.

The only reason i'm considering going back to a 93 tune is that I'm kind of feeling buyers remorse for the OFT. I should have gotten a ecutek tune at HRI over in orlando. I've heard seriously good things about them and was impressed with the 86 owners car who I met. Plus I like to think of it this way, what would you rather have? A generic one size fits all suit or a tailored one to your body. The same applies to my preference on tuning.

How is it that there are no buy/sell chats/topics open for the southeast?

We're in Florida- no emissions testing. If you have a OFT, hollow out the cats and go Stage 2 93. That makes a huge difference. If you have the money to blow on a nice header, go for it, it'll net you a couple more HP/torque. But with a OFT already, you can spend a couple hours and for free and you will notice a huge difference.

You can get Ecutek sure, but if you are still stock or just cat-back, what's the point?
