Wish i could get this now but have to wait a little bit, pretty much a must have if you are wanting to get the most power while staying NA.

Technically most power for NA or FI applications.

Very true, i would be happy with the power of most of the FI kits on pump gas though if you are wanting big numbers FI + E85 would be the way to go.

The link is dead BTW. I'm curious why this hasn't gotten much interest, people were waiting months for Visconti to release his kit.

The kit plus cable, license, and data logger works out to be $1400. Is there something I'm missing here?

it was only posted in the for sale section I never had a tech thread but the new version of the kit will have a tech thread this week so people can understand what goes into the install and map adjustments for the flex fuel kit. there are 3 users on the forum with this kit reeves, white devil & another person which i dont know their screen name. the rest are locals. you can contact one of them about the kit

I haven't finished wiring up the kit yet, but haven't been in a rush to do so either since I haven't really needed it. I'm on the road almost every weekend too, mostly up through South Carolina, and for whatever reason there's a surprisingly high number of E85 stations in that state. Haven't really needed or wanted 93 octane since I purchased the E85 tune.

I bought the flex fuel kit just in case I found myself in a situation where I would need to mix 93 octane and E85... luckily, I've yet to encounter that situation.

So just out of curiosity. If you get a flex fuel tune, is it going to be an enhanced tune? For example, when you have a tank of 93 in it will it be equal to your performance (Stage 1 or 2 or whatever is best) tune, and then ramp up accordingly to full E85? Or is there a base Flex map, then you have to purchase a performance tune above that?


I haven't done any tuning (or modding at all) yet. Just trying to figure this stuff out first.

the kit is mainly hardware and flex fuel compensation tables added to a preexisting tune. so you will need some sort of tune already be it pump or e85.
