Another newb e85 queston??

I have a 255 pump, BlueMax 1250's, FP Red, 3.5 ETS front mount, injen upper and ETS lower piping, 3 inch JUN BL TBE no cat and a conservative tune on pump gas. My power was 380hp and 330tq. I had an exhaust rattle and timing was pulled out on my tune, I have now fixed the rattle. I'm running 26 to 27lbs of boost. I know for power and safety I need a tune for the e85, but could I run e85 on my gas tune?? I'm at 52% IDC with my 93 tune under 26 to 27lbs of boost. I plan on getting it tuned right I was more curious if it can be done. I also have my flame suit on.

Thanks for the input guys. ALSO I have not done this, I am just curious.

You'd have to rescale the injectors at the least, so no...

You have everything you need to support e85, but you will still need a retune.
