Default Tuner For Boost With E85

Is there anyone on here running E85 with a FI car? Im wondering if anyone here knows someone that has experience tunning FI with E85. This will be a speed density and open loop tune.

Not that Im in your area - but Tuning for Boost - and E85 is not hard. I had my E85 car on the dyno @ CMS ( Ryne let me do my own tuning ) and the only real difference is how nice it smells in the shop =)

Last time I looked there was only one spot that had e-85 and that was in down town sd. But that was two years ago. How much is it right now to 87 and where are the gas station that have them. Thanks.
