PM or text me about the details if you need a tester or anything.

The P&L car I started mapping the other day has my full blown Flex Fuel Kit in it.

Fueling, and Boost is adjusted based on ethanol content.

Car also has a Normal and High Boost setting on-the-fly.

It has per gear boost control, traction control - it's badass

I spent about 5hrs setting up some really complicated stuff in the ECU.

God, how much will this setup cost? This sounds, in all honesty, too good to be true. I'll give you a call when the kit is on, I feel like this will take at least 2 hours or more of dyno time.

Had to put thanks to you Visconti. My car is running damned smooth! I love that I have Flex Fuel, running Octane 93 for now until the final mappings are in place!

The reason why I opted for Flex Fuel is because I don't want to run into a situation where I can't find an E85 station anywhere near, so I'll just load up Octane 93 without worrying how much fuel I have left or if I'll make it to a gas station... just one less thing to measure in time of crisis!

PS - THIS TUNE IS AWESOME! Looking forward to the full boost options!!

Would love to have one of the sensors. The dealer is replacing my second hpfa and the tech can install the flex sensor while messing with the fuel lines. Ill design my own bracket. Looking forward to flex fuel.

@Visconti: any updates on the FF sensor? I see that FA20Club released their FF setup today for $750. Quite spendy but I guess they're first to market.

The $750 includes the Flex fuel map so, $750- 300 for the map comes out to about $450. (estimated numbers). They are in line with what everyone was expecting (about $500 for the flex fuel kit).

Yeah, was budgeting $500. Really, really hoping that, if we've purchased the 93 and E85 maps, we won't have to pay for a combination map.

That's a good question, and I think if you have both maps you should be set.

The Flex Fuel configuration isn't going to be cheap.

What FA20 club is posting up isn't the best equipment. fyi.

Anyone willing to cut wires can do flex fuel.

Right now I'm working on a plug and play kit for both GTR and BRZ.

On top of that I'm also working on some new electronics that will allow me to provide a failsafe system. Going with the zentronixs system does not have a failsafe. If the sensor goes bad or gets unplugged the ecu will still think everything is OK and will see a 65% ethanol content reading. This could be bad if you really on pump.


Here are the fuel lines I'm using on the GTR..

I have similar lines for the BRZ/FRS



Here's some pics of this past weekend - Going through some of my new circuitry







I've been busy
