Ex, if you run a s/c setup with gas and you know your target a/f you can run leaner with the e85 than with gas and make more power. But, you paint yourself into a corner because then you can never put gas back in the car unless you switch tunes.
That's what I figured you meant. Thanks for clarifying.
