It is a little of a power loss. But it is hard to not go e85 when it is cheaper at the pump and essentially race gas octane. Now depending on year of mustang we have a flex fuel tune which you can run both on one tune for 15-17 5.0 and we have e85 only tunes for 18-19 and almost have the flex fuel tune done for those years. If you guys have any questions call us at 313-561-5500 thank you

Your first sentence has me confused. What is a little bit of power loss?

I'm sorry I meant it is a little of a power loss from the e85. But if you are talking from stock it is a night and day difference. I have a 16 mustang gt with our stage 1 kit on a flex fuel tune and the firmness in shifting I really enjoy compared to stock tune plus the extra horsepower is nice also.

Ok..thanks. I had your flex fuel tune on my 2016 and liked it. I now have a 2018 and will want an e85 tune in the spring. From all the research I have done, it seems that 93 tunes are not as effective on the 2018s as on earlier models. However, apparently E 85 tunes really wake them up.

I think a lot of people miss the low end torque gains on e85. That is everyday driving and feels fat. It is big difference from stock. I hear people talking about how lazy the motor is down low? The 3.55 is helping too in my case, but it is effortless acceleration in 2500-3500 rpm range. Good stuff.
