Not sure. When Shaun was tuning my car, I asked him about raising shift points. He said it doesn’t pull above 7500 and it would slow the car down. He obviously was right
I would not be comfortable with much more than 7500 for a couple of reasons....engine durability and potentially reduced performance. In most dyno graphs I have seen, the power drops off rapidly over 7500.

Some tuners may get it to work great at those higher shift points but I prefer keeping the shift points nearer stock.

I have the E85 flex from Livernois and drive it every day 20 miles round trip to work. Love it. Last I tested was E78 from a Chevron off Fletcher and I-5 in Los Angeles that also sells 100 octane Sunoco. No real issues with starting, drivability, anything else. This particular tune also has some transmission tweaks that make the car extra fun! Mileage is about 13 miles per gallon, but remember this is Los Angeles! Other than MRR wheels and tires, car is totally stock.
If you can, please contribute to this thread -https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/the-so-cal-e85-report.123685/

78% EtOH E85 is lowish for what I've seen in So Cal Lately where 4 documented places were all 85%+.

What's the best e85 kit for 2018 GT stock injectors please link kit website
Kit? 18+ For e85 you just need a tune, no injectors or anything else. AED, PBD or Lund are all great tuners, can do either flex tune or dedicated e85.

No fuel injector or pump upgrade is needed to run e85 on an 18+. Just a custom tune. We’ve got Lund Racing, PBD, AED and Li Tuning and Racing custom tunes all available here at Lethal Performance. Give us a shout and we’ll be glad to assist you.

Thanks!
