I was able to get 34 this time around with no knock.

I guess i will just wait for my second tank of E85 and raise the boost.
and a retune..

If your E85 tune is done correctly - with fuel and timing tapered properly - you should definitely be able to turn the boost down without getting knock.

I always take it easy with the first tank of either E85 or gasoline when ever I'm switching fuels. If this was on your first tank, I would simply wait and see what happens on your second tank.
