You can do this with the engine on by the way. It is based on rear wheel speed, so you can do it as long as you're not moving.
Yep, you can....

I was just relaying the instructions from the GMS3 kit for engaging HOM.

This is not the kind of thing that is going to happen over night unfortunately. If you're serious about this then you can email Vince@trifectaperformance.com and let him know you want it.

The main issue here is going to be demand. So far I can count about 3, maybe 4 people that want this. I'm sure others would appreciate it too, but I'm hesistant to pull Vince away from his other projects for something that may not even show a return. If anyone reading this would be interested in a safe way of switching between Gas and E85 tunes via the HOM switch (this would eliminate HOM as we know it), then please make yourself heard.

I would like this for my car, but until E85 moves closer to my area I'm forced to stick with good ol' Cam2.

I think there would be more people interested in doing it if the idea were put in front of them. You can just about any kind of fuel you need at the track so if you don't have E85 stations near you you can still be on pump gas and when you go to the track you're burnin corn and rubber :-)

If I'm going to be running E85 I would want to be running it all the time. I would use the 93 octane default tune as a back up if I were in a pinch and needed fuel, and the station didn't carry E85. I don't go the track with my car, so it's not a good option for me yet.

I run race gas a few times a year while I have my car out, and I'm more than content with the power while in H.O.M.

the thing is the maf difference with premium and e85 are different so if its just the spark is the only thing thats gettin altered your not gettin most of the corn well thats my understanding.

High octane mode adds spark to the timing table and leans out the cmnd AFR slightly.

To run it as is from GM would not work with E85, as you would need to tune the fueling side of things as well.

What we are proposing is a way to have dual tunes with the ability to switch via the cruise control button like you would with GMR S3's high octane mode.

All the tuning for E85 would be encased in the seperate tune. If you are in a pinch, or just want to run 93 you would be able to switch back, and forth. Vince has not covered this yet, but I feel it could be possible.

I'm not totally sure.

That's the problem. Maybe Vince can figure it out.

And hopefully soon! I have a tvs I'm putting on this winter and I'm hoping to have it strapped down on the rollers soon. If vince cracked it before I'm sure he can do it again! :-)
