Can't wait for my E85 tune and more power!

I recently got tuned by Tom and made 335whp with 91oct with a 110*f weather and the mods in my sig, I was gonna get a 25g or an Fp green next year and tune it again on 91oct but I said eff it! I'll just go and make the switch to E85, there's not a lot of E85 gas stations in El Paso but theres 1 next to my gym so I'll fill up there. I got Fic 1050s coming on the mail and next week Im getting a new walbro and i'll be contacting Tom again for the E85 tune, I wanted to switch to E85 cause my power goals are 400whp lets just hope I can hit that. What do you guys think ?

Update:
Yesterday I made the switch to E85 and I want to thank Tom for being a good sport, although we still have some work to do Im happy with the numbers so far and Tom says theres still room for more power to be made, here's a graph. Also I need to preload the WG more and do a boost leak test.

Adrian... If you really do have a 84mm comp cover swing by this weekend and ican do the leak test... I didnt know you you had one or i'd have done it the other night... Only takes as long as removing and installing your intake pipe...

Nothing like the Jungle Juice.

Get that TB ported, probably good for some more HP...Usually only benefit from both TB and IM being ported, not just one or the other. Might as well replace the seals as well, pretty common source for boost leaks right?
