Someone is making all the parts needed? I was reading awhile back that it wasn't totally feasible yet?

Installing the flexfuel sensor and having it integrate into the factory ECU is not feasible yet. So for now you would have to do what I did, drain the tank of pump gas, throw in e85, and dyno tune for it.

And yes, I pump straight from the e85 pumps, no mixing.

do you keep the flexfuel sensor? I understand the rest.

How do you know you are always getting the correct ethanol content? E85 can legally be as low as 51%. That's a pretty significant variation as far as the tune goes.

No sensor

almost sounds like the old specific gravity test are needed.

TSloper, If I get a canned tuned for a supercharger like Magnuson, can I pull all the data tuned parameter from the ECU to modify from my HP Turner? I have things like cat bypass, etc.

If they don't lock it down then yes you could do that. I saw a 2014 ProCharger tune and wasn't impressed with some of the brute force things they did.

Thanks for sharing! It seems that you are surely making progress with some easy bolt on's and the E85 conversion.
