I don't know about you guys but for opinion sake I try to be around 17-18 degrees on the top of 8k with e85. I've been told that e85 will even take 20 with adding power peak torque for me has been around 5-8 degrees depending on the boost.

Apparently not... Guy is VERY aggressive with his E85 tunes because he thinks elevation plays a role in everything... I'll just leave it at that.
