you need larger injectors for corn, and the boost, so what ever injector they offer in the kit is likely to small.

im sure you can get larger injectors and tune for corn with the sc regardless what the install directions say.

I would have thought that they would make the kit so it could run on E85 and really wring the horsepower out of the whole setup!

im seeing e85 canned tunes out there, so with the growing popularity of e85, in time im sure they will offer a e85 kit with a tune for it.

I can't get over all these gas stations popping up that are only selling 87 and various grades of ethanol. They are not packed like a corner store or WaWa or RaceTrac. I think these folks are part of Uncle Sam's subsidies and goal of opening more station across the country. This program was put in place during the last Administration and probably codified into law so this current administration cannot touch it. crazy.

Seems like it's been the same price as regular for a while. I stopped getting it until it's .30 or so cheaper

Are you guys seeing prices going up these last few days?
E85 is still the same price near me, $1.649

Filled up yesterday. Gauge was on about 1/8 and the DIC showed 21.9 gallons used and it took almost 25 to fill it up.... lol

Around here, they went up to $1.99-$2.10 for most of them and have stayed there for a few weeks. Then there's WaWa that's real proud of their offering for $2.83 and then some little station in an out of the way area in Jensen Beach for near $4 a gallon.

Running E30 and the DIC is averaging 14.4 mpg right now, all city driving with about 40 minutes of idling, not bad so far.
