Yes, it does matter. Every time you switch from e85 to 93 and vice versa there is varying amounts of the previous fuel left over. This is going to give you inconsistent fuel which in turn throws the fuel tune off. I know from experience.

Your ecu does not run in closed loop at wide open throttle.

If your ecu never runs in closed loop, than it doesn't use fuel trims.

Apparently you don't know what works, Tom at tscomp tuned your car.

Obvioiusly I know that trims are based off injector scaleing. If injectors are scaled correctly shouldnt matter am I wrong?

And yes Tom did tune my car, and yes we did do fuel trims when we did injectors and reguardless of what fuel I use they don't change much.
