E10 vs non ethanol gas
so what do you guys think on horse power tuned the best afr for e10 vs non ethanol fuel?
i can take the ethanol out of hightest and endup with around 89 gas but i am thinking if you tune for e10 than who cares power wise it just takes a tad more fuel.
do not de ethanol regular. you will only be around 84. good for the larnmower and yard stuff only.

What I cannot understand is "WHy are we feeding our vehicles the Best Sweet Yellow Corn and adding this to our Gasoline to have 10% by volume only to lose 10% fuel mileage??" What did we gain?? I hope the removal of the Farmers Subsidy will stop the Madess! DId I mention that I am also spending $3 per tank for the Dry Gas to keep the Ethanol induced water in suspension so I am not drawing 100% water??
