    Do you recommend a HPFP?
    What I am getting to run e85 smartly and safely is a E-Analyzer, HPFP?, and that’s it? Thank you for these videos!

      Thank you for supporting us! An HPFP upgrade is not required for our standard E85 files. However, if you do run one, you can purchase our + files for a small upgrade fee, and benefit from a nice bump in mid-range HP & TQ when running our + E85 files, for example, Stage 1+ or Stage 2+.
      Running an ethanol content analyzer would be ideal, as you'd be able to see your exact ethanol content at the fuel rails.

    I don’t think the question really got answered for some of us. we fill up with e85 and then flash? Then drive mildly for 20-30 mins? Or, fill up and drive for 20-30 mins, then switch maps? Which one? Thx.

      Empty Tank -> Fill -> Drive LIGHTLY for 5-10 minutes, or idle for roughly the same amount of time -> Flash.
      This process becomes extremely simplified with an ethanol content sensor as you are able to see your ethanol content at the engine.

      @@034MotorsportUncut thank you. I get the sensor piece, but wasn’t sure of the order of flashing before or after fill up.

      We feel that the options currently on the market are great options. We typically use Fuel-It kits on our B9's!

    Should I fill up the tank fully e85? Or put 1 gal 93 and rest e85 to be safer? I’ve heard mixed reviews. I wanna hear it from the experts themselves lol

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  3 месяца назад

      A fully tank of E85 is required. We do not require the user to blend down unless their ethanol content is over E85

    Can we run e85 indefinately? I hear a lot of things about e85 causing buildup on injectors, or not providing lubrication. Not sure what is real or urban myth

      We recommend cycling out with pump gas once every 6 months or so

    Do you have to flash again to go back to pump gas or can you just fill up with whichever one when the tank is empty?

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  Год назад +2

      You will have to flash to the specific file that corresponds with the gas that’s in your tank

      so when i flash to e85 and it gets low but i don’t wanna use e85 again, I would first flash the car to pump gas file and then pump in pump gas or how?

    Hi guys, can I do the same for my 2013 a6 3.0t ? I’m looking to go stage 1. If so will it be available on your website when purchasing my tune?

    • @034MotorsportUncut

      We offer an E40 file that will get you the most performance out of Stage 1! It's included in your purchase along with 91, 93, 100, and 104 octane files.

    Can you just run E85 and no 93. In my Subaru I'd run three tanks flex fuel then forth tank 93 to keep everything lubed up

      Yes, we have had no issues running straight tanks of E85 for months on end.

    I haven’t bought a content analyzer yet, but technically, can I drive around lightly for 30 minutes when I first put e85 in, and then tune the car to you alls e85 tune?
