Ordering rktunes e85 file

Good afternoon all
I am gonna order the rktunes 91;98 and e85 file in the next few days. I really like that they give you the ability to map switch.
I have FBO and struggling to make 280wkw or 375whp with 98 octane and it is a happy dyno I am using.
Mods include Ms stage 2 intake and pulley. Full decat race exhaust and a local company had done the software here in south Africa.

Rktunes has the 1/4 record so it's no brainer but I just want to know how much different does the car fuel from a 95 octane file to a e85 file?

E85 is a big difference because you can put a lot more ignition advance in without detonation.

I read all about your car. I have the exact same mods besides the volk wheels and all your weight reduction mods. I really would like to see very high 11s with maybe just the back seats removed and a lighter battery.

keeping the standard euro launch control at 5500.

what other secrets you have to share with me pleeeaaaaase

Haha some secrets we must keep, but you have the right recipe for a high 11 second pass. Stay tuned I'm going back with my new NA M3 to beat that record again

you are my hero! tell me the ethanol content was 85% and the other 15% was 95aki or did you buy premixed e85?

at the moment I buy full e99 and mix it with pump and test it.

are you going to beat your own record with rktunes again?
