There isn't a company out there that doesn't have bad reviews. I had a positive experience, sorry you had a negative one.
I know of a shop who he worked with and they ended up going their separate ways, and as much shit as the other person had to say about Jordan, he admitted that he is one hell of a tuner. I also was there in person the other day when someone came in with a damaged motor after RK tuned i lt. the person was furious and it turns out the customer was doing pulls on his e85 map with only 93oct in the car, even when Jordan gave him a tablet to change tunes on the spot. It's people like that who don't share half of the story.

People have been tuned for E85 way before flex fuel sensors and auto adjusting has been around. I'm not a tuner but I assume not having the car tuned on the ragged edge of E85 is how you tune it on pump E85.

Solid numbers. Can you speak the amount of fuel youre going thru with E85? Also does Jordan give you an other maps in case you want to mix your own?

I get probably 250-300 miles per tank. And yes you get whatever maps you want. 93,e85, burble, non burble, aggressive or mild on timing. Go to him and tell him Jason Giani sent you

250-300 is like extremely conservative driving on 93/91 for me. That doesn't sound right. Most of my averages are about 225-250. It'll be wishful thinking youd get at least 200 on E85. I like the idea that our system can take E85 without any upgrade on an NA motor unless you want the ability to not worry about flashing your DME. In which case a flex fuel kit is needed!

Correct. I know a lot of people who do it and have been running this way for a while now.

I drove 73.4 miles yesterday and today I drove 75.5 miles. I am very little below a half a tank right now.

Also if you look at the dyno plot, his tq is almost 25ft lbs more from peak tq ~3k to about 6k. More usable tq = less throttle input?

For you guys running E85, the manual specifically states not to run anything beyond E10. How is this safe for the fuel system?

I am sure most of the cars would be ok with E40 blend but %100 E85 on long term for our cars? I guess we will watch and see. E85 is great for summer when its crazy hot and it helps a lot with cool down and octane rating is 105.

Is this safe to say on a stock DME? I think the hardware is fine and can candle it but tune wise, you'd run like crap?

Manufacturers started making fuel lines compatible a long time ago for Ethanol. I ran full E85 in my N54 for many years with no problems. Since E85 has lower AFR, you lambda targets need to be lower. So yes your car will run like crap without flashing a tune with the fuel tables adjusted for it.
