That's a clean setup. Is it just ran through a throttle body spacer?

I'M sure E85 will benefit a lot more but you will also need injectors, fuel pump and a special map. That will take a lot of money.

Hi, the car have FVD tune this is the info they have on their site.

ADAPTABLE – Our software is adaptive and as such we give you hundreds of software timing maps. That’s right, hundreds of software maps! No need to contact us for other “Custom” time consuming “OTS” off the shelf calibrations, flash once with FVD Software and be done. Each of our maps are tied into the vehicle’s sensor information so with differing variations in climate, throttle, altitude, exhaust gas temperature and octane our software automatically adjusts to give you superior performance and a factory-smooth feel. We also adjust the software to accommodate 91-100 North American ((RON+MON)/2) and Rest of World 95-104 (RON) octane automatically (adjusts timing and knock sensors accordingly). This is done automatically without the need of external hardware or toggling through the cruise control functions, just fill and go! If you want to change the intake or add a throttle body in the future, for example, our software will also adapt for larger Porsche® throttle bodies and IPD plenums with greater air mass automatically, simply install and feel the gains without the hassle of sending the ECU back or having to install another file.
