E85 and 91 octane map switching

I am interested in buying an 04 viii gsr that is currently running on a tune with E85. One problem is that the nearest e85 pump is about ten miles away from me, so I figured if I had an option to switch between e85 and 91 octane maps, would it be possible? What exactly would be needed to set it up so with the flip of a switch and different gas in the tank (filled from near empty)it would work? Thanks

You will need:

1. Tephra patched ROM in your ECU

2. Way of switching between the 2 maps, either using the Intercooler Sprayer (ICS) switch, or an Alt-Map harness

3. ECU maps (fuel, timing, boost, etc.) for both fuel types.
