Fueling, and Boost is adjusted based on ethanol content.

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

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

You sir are a genius

I'm going to be doing a AVO Turbo Kit very soon with the Flex Fuel kit

Should be badass.

Can't wait

What the hell those pappers look like something NASA rocketsceintist would be using

How's the 86 FlexFuel kit coming? Inquiring minds want to know (and test, and buy)!

Just working on a few wiring things to make it easier for people to install

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

Absolutely no disrespect meant, but I find this humorous. The pics you posted are simple calculations for a resistor divider network, sophomore level EE stuff.

Just wanted to point this out.

FWIW, I am highly looking forward to this flex fuel kit. Don't get me wrong.

Excited to see it. On my Evo, due to having a stock frame FP Black and high compression motor, I go from 352whp to 556whp just by filling up with E85 and flipping a switch. I am well aware of the benefits of running ethanol and look to in this car as well. Unfortunately, nothing like this flex fuel map interpolation is available with the stock Evo ECU. Your work is very exciting.
