Got it. Thanks Dave. I've been lurking and learning from your posts.
BTW and OT: Am I understanding it right that it seems all Protomtive customers get more a less a custom tune based on data logging? I mean the process seems to be that Todd would send a basic tune, customer data logs, sends back data, then Todd would revise the tune and sends it back for trial, and so on? If so, it's really fantastic, and quite amazing.

The stock injectors are 630cc, did you upgrade yours to 720cc?
If you already have 720cc injectors then you are what a 5 bar FPR would do to a 630cc injector.
E85 is min 105 octane that will help you to run higher timing, it burns cooler and so your EGT will be lower.
On storing E85 I have no experience.
Give Todd a call and he would be better able to answer your questions.

The only mod I needed to do was to swap out the FPR, no lines or pumps.
See my DIY on the swapping to 5 bar FPR.
The car won't run right if you put in E85 on a 93 Tune as more fuel is needed for E85.
