BBP tune for 91 octane works great on E85. I run premium only as I cannot find a reliable source for e85 near me. But the hunt is on…. You’d think in Dallas i could find something within 20 miles but it’s proven to be elusive. I tried some but after 3 tanks I was running 28% alcohol content. I hear it takes 5-6 tanks to get an accurate adjustment but I just couldn’t stomach whatever my octane rating was with 87/e85 mix so I’ll find a better source before I commit. I will say it was “sporty” with what little ethanol I could get…
Mine adjusts almost instantly.
BBP told me that I should run on 89 for tuning. I am going to do my log soon. I will be interested to see how it runs on E85 ( y me its 60%).

Quick question for the price listed on the webpage: http://store.blackbearperformance.com/Tuning-and-Software_c_209.html

It shows a $649 (add to cart), but further down in the "Structure" paragragh I see:

"Additional vehicle tune purchase price is $400, which includes the tune service and software license."

Does this refer to a completely seperate vehicle/VIN, or a 2nd tune on the same vehicle?

That’s for a tune on an additional vehicle. Once you have the Autocal you can use it to tune many many vehicles for $400 each. Each tune is good for as long as you own the vehicle and they will retune it for free if something changes. Anything like power adders or change in wheel size , stall converter, gearing change etc can require a change in the tune and this is provided for no additional charge.

So basically you’re paying $249 for the Autocal and $400 for each vehicle you want tuned. If sometime in the future you decide to sell the Autocal you can recoup most of that $249, they generally go for $200 used.
