Our E85 tunes are available with necessary fuel upgrades and our true flex tune will be out at the end of the month!

Thats awesome to hear! The flex fuel tune will be compatible with the V6 platform? Also, with a tune provided from you, will it work with the SCT X4 flash programmer i have or will i need to get a BAMA tuner?

Yup...we are currently testing it. You can use the X4 and just purchase the Bama FTFL program from Americanmuscle.com for $150

Is going e85 on a NA car really worth it?

Its always worth it power you get from tuned e85 is crazy.
Think of it as if you use meth injection it helps a ton with power, but people either using e85 OR meth to make more power.

Here is a good article about different fuels.

On stock compression and cams with a tune you are going to make some power but not enough to justify the PITA factor IMO.

I am only planning to get around 10 extra horsepower off of the conversion. Seems like a good deal to me, e85 is ~$1 cheaper where im located and easily available, so the mod will pay for itself in around a year. On top of that i will be running fuel with a 100-105 octane rating!

you will get more then 10. any exp I have had with mods and e85 from 93 was a 30-40hp diff The reason it gives you more is because it burns cooler giving you room to adjust more, more power less knock
may vary since its not turbo or procharged but you will still get some decent power if your trying to push power out of it.
