Ive been doing alot of research as far as who to go through for tuning to e85. Im curious what everyone thinks is the best route to go. There is a ton of knowledge floating around on this forum so i figure this is the best place to get information. Thanks in advance for the input!

We have done a significant amount of development, testing, and tuning of E85 setups. I think you would love our E85 tune.

You want to do an email tune for E??? Find a good HPTuner and get it done... Run up to ZZP or get Mdub to do it

Shakes of head. Lol.............. Its gonna be a personal preference for everyone so everyone will say different things. Ure best.bet.is to contact a tuner. Could be a hptuner tuner or a trifecta guy. Just pick. Hptuner known tuners are byt,me,term, and new in the game is mdubs lol. Heard good things about all of them. If u are worried go trifecta im sure they can give u a few cels hahah jk but all are good sources to choose from.

bahaha i was just about to say i know call or email them, but i am also looking for real world experience with them from customers before i decide on which one

real world tune experience i believe is always nice to here, especially if anyone actually had a tune with problems or so.

He tuned my lsj back in 09 and my lnf last year and taught me quite a bit about how to tune myself. He's been around tuning for a long time

But if the op is in michigan i would say take a trip to zzp. They have all of your answers you need, power gains will be impressive, and you dont really need to worry about the clutch too much if you ask them to bring on the boost gradually. Mines still holding up on E at 25k miles

I can set you up with an E85 dyno tune for $225. We got pretty involved with our E85 development going as far as graphing the injector timing and pump solenoid timing on a lab scope while logging fuel pressure at multiple locations, tuning, and making hundreds of dyno pulls. This allowed us to see exactly what is happening rather than going with what feels faster or simply looks better on the scan tool. In the end, we utilized about $100k worth of equipment while working on our LNF E85 tunes.

Chance of zzp answering 0 chance of them emailing back slim to none. Until u buy the product 9/10 they won't talk to you

If you live in MI go to ZZP. Do you even have HP tuners to get a remote tune from any of the other tuners or do you plan on driving 8hrs?
