I think you meant to say you filled up @shogun32 tank with E85😁

How much different is E85 with tune from stock?
He's the man, and I have a running list of things I owe him lol.

It's night and day. I was really happy with the 93 tune I got from PBD. But then I spent that day burning off all the 93 then filled up with E85 and loaded the flex tune. Other than two tanks of 93 I've been using only E85 for the last few months. The power gains around 2.5k rpm and up are huge (for what it is, obvi a PD blower gains are going to be huge-r).

I don't have dyno numbers or any other objective data, but I can tell you that you will have no doubt about which fuel you're running when driving.

To put it another way: I have been going 20+ miles (round trip) out of my way to run it over 93 for a few months now. Unless, and maybe even after, I'll deal with this inconvenience until or if I go FI.

The tune was worth every penny to me.

I've learned to just roll with it when it comes to damage. Cars are meant to be driven, and enjoyed, and they just acquire the scars from that 😉
That's my mindset too. Once I saw the cost of PP film I quickly forgot that idea; threw on a ceramic coating and called it a weekend.. Tools, cars, guns, they're all meant to be used. It sucks, but I didn't buy any of them for how they looked.

you and me, dyno stat. :) PBD E85/flex vs Unleashed 93 and see how things marry up.
I need my SS dyno'd and might as well throw the F150 on the pile...

I'm down for fun. I ran my old G35 once and pulled a whopping 252whp. I was sad.

Mobile 1 in Potomac Mills. Listed as 104 on the handle. Talked to a dude with a built EvoX today and he said his tuner was testing at a constant E80+ throughout the this past winter.

The Sheets stuff is fine for the FF tune. Lower eth but still up there. I've gone to that station a couple time but it was more for the convince of eth and food in one stop.

4/19/2021:

23,600+ miles odo

The spark plugs' gap on my car increased enough to change the driving experience so I swapped them out and put new ones in (NGK 6510 pre-gapped). I also installed a new evap purge valve while I was at it.

old spark plugs:
