    +1 to that.

    It will work fine. Stoich is stoich as far as the O2 sensor is concerned. O2 is one of the better sensors on the car as it works from basic chemical principles.

    The biggest issue E85/E70/Eflex users seem to have is the changing ratio. If you want to be really special you can make a flex fuel vehicle with an oxygen content sensor in the tank (http://www.zeitronix.com/Products/ECA/ECA.shtml) and an ECU with multiple maps (Link G4) and interpolate between them.

    I say just run 98 ron. That giant ugly turbo you have will make plenty-o-powah.

    Don't forget the substantial decrease in range of a tank of fuel on E85. Not a real problem if driving past said caltex on regular basis, but could get very annoying if you have to go out of your way to refill 2 or 3 times a week.

    Not being able to change the PID control for the O2 feedback on a nistune will be a problem if deviating a long way between the map and the required trim level.

    Why would you have to correct a lot? Only reason is because you haven't dialed in the ve table correctly...

    What? They can't autotune on a narrowband sensor?
