I need E85 tune?

Is there any cheap open source tunes out there for Evo IX?

Its really unsafe (imo) to not actually tune for e85. I have some friends (that tune) and refuse to do e85 even as a street tune. Much preferred to do on a dyno. If you're gonna run e85 and push that much power out of your motor. Do it right and do it on a dyno.

I can do a E85 tune for you remotely. If you have any questions, let me know.

Maybe I'm missing something here but I fail to see how doing an e85 tune is any different than doing a pump gas tune regardless of whether it's on a dyno or not. Aren't you just doing pulls, logging, and changing stuff within the ECU accordingly?
