I'm getting the impression that he paid for the race tune but doesn't have the flex tune. So he's wanting to jump straight from 93 to the race tune. Which can be done, just have to drive like an old woman for the first tank of E85.You could but it would be a hassle. You'd have to run the 93 down to fumes before filling up with E85 and make sure that fuel is through the system before you get on it. The closest station for me always runs between 74 and 77% ethanol. A couple gallons of 93 still in the tank puts me under E70 (between 65-68%) which isn't good enough. If it was E80 or up it would probably be good enough. Flashing a tune doesn't take long at all. Only a couple of minutes and another few minutes of driving for the car to adjust. You could even stay on the flex tune and run whatever fuel you want and go to the E85 tune when you want the extra benefit. No reason to go between 3 different tunes. IMO if you're not racing no reason not to use a flex fuel tune unless you have E85 on every corner. You'd be able to tell a big difference in power on a flex tune and running high E content.
