Not doubting you, skiracer, but I'm listing references only in the top post.

I'm amazed that only one tuner has plugged this thread. What's up with that?

No, that car used AEM but the stock computer is more than capable and have tuned several cars on E85 on the stock ecu with turbo sizes up to the FP Green.
Past the FP Green and the MAF starts becoming a restriction and the injector size usually hits the 1000cc range as a minimum so most customers end up switching to AEM just like the car's graph shown in that thread.

Carz Performance in Lakewood, Colorado tuned my car on an AEM. Not sure what other options they have.

Please point me to an E85 tune thread, or a web site link.

How about you PM them? That's what I did.

Is this a flash of the OEM ECU or a standalone ECU?

Can you point us to any threads of satisfied customers?

I second DB Performance in Rogers, MN. I know that Shane Ziegler has over 4+ years of tuning with specifically E85.

Some may notice this car that was dynoed at his shop.

Methanol instead of ethanol though :P

Just got finished being tuned by Jestr on E85. Very positve experience. He was very patient with me while I tried to resolve a problem with boost that looks like it may be a bad boost gauge. He even said he would look at my tune again after I replace the gauge.
Best bang for the buck so far.....
