There is, but only if you go with our cloning method as we'll be using ecutek. Our cheaper option of tuning the stock ecu wont allow true flex fuel.

Can you elaborate on mixed reviews with the E? If you have flex fuel it’s a no brainer!!

I ran E40 in my Toyota supra
I ran, E40 in my X3M
And I ran E50 in my X5M

I never had any issues at all. Don’t know what you’re hearing.

Probably because a lot of people (including myself) primarily daily their G80. I’m cool with a conservative 93 pump custom (600-630ish whp w/ dp and intake) that still hooks and makes car more efficient overall.

Also doesn’t help I live 30+ from nearest e85 pump and I’m lazy 😂
