    I would imagine it would be OK to just keep your foot on the throttle for 2-2.5k RPMs in neutral?

    I’m switching right now cuz of 93 prices. I paid $100 to fill my SQ5 today. Absolutely ridiculous but I’m excited for extra power!

      Update: after driving with it for over a year now, I absolutely love it. I recommend everyone that can switch over to e85, the “good fuel”. It’s so much better and cheaper.
      Only reason I’m here today is to flash back to stock for warranty work. 😭

    Ordered everything a few days ago, can't wait to get it in.
    That said, I have a gas station less than a 5 minute drive from my house in a 25mph zone. So if I were to drive my tank empty (93 octane), fill up with E85 and slowly drive it home I assume that will be fine as well. By that time (around 2 miles) my guess is that most of the 93 in the fuel lines should be gone by then.

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  Год назад +1

      As long as you don’t hit boost, you’ll be fine! We highly recommend installing an ethanol content sensor and gauge to ensure you’re hitting proper ethanol levels

      You do not need one, but it makes this process much less of a guess.

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  7 месяцев назад

      We recommend the Fuel-It! kit. Check out our video tutorial on that kit here: ruclips.net/video/objh7Alp87o/видео.htmlsi=pKFxMg25VjW3EUlC

  • @adinosmic2300
    @adinosmic2300 Год назад +2

    Is this process similar when switching from ethanol back to 93? Do I switch the octane file immediately or wait for the blend to go down?

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  Год назад +1

      The process is the same but in reverse. You should wait for the blend to get down to below E60, flash the 93 file, and drive gently until the the remaining blend is to E30 or less.

    Can you run the car with the upgraded HPFP piston while on 91 before getting it fully switched over to e85?

    • @034MotorsportUncut

      Yep! You can run on pump fuel files with the upgraded HPFP piston installed without an issue.

  • @vivanbhathena999
    @vivanbhathena999 Год назад

    stupid question but how bad is the mileage on e70 ...drag strip is about a 100kms away. do i have to carry extra ethanol with me and has anyone done the mix with 93 or are you supposed to do it with 91 only. 93 will have ethanol at e10 so switchover maybe faster? anyone calculated the exact ratio like 25-75 or exact 70-30

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  Год назад

      You can expect about a 30% decrease in overall fuel economy when running full E85. Our E85 file is designed for full E85 and we recommend against any mixing with 91 or 93.
      Bringing extra ethanol with you would be ideal!

  • @petarkiteski4502

    What is the process to switch back to 93 octane from e85?

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  2 года назад +2

      It is the inverse of this. Fill tank with 93. Wait for ethanol content to go below the E60 threshold. Flash to 93. Idle/LIGHTLY drive until e content comes down to e10-e30.

    Could you daily a E85 Tune file on a B9 S4? Any cons from running it daily?

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  2 года назад

      Yes you could daily drive your B9 S4 on E85.
      We would recommend occasionally running a tank of pump gas, though we have not seen any adverse effects to running full E85 at this time.

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  2 года назад

      You can absolutely daily on E85 without issue! You may need to fill up more regularly due to the fact that E85 files require 30% more fuel, but that's certainly made up in smiles!

  • @atlas9079
    @atlas9079 3 месяца назад

    what if i just idle at the pump till it runs out of gas then full with e85 and then flash it

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  3 месяца назад

      That's not necessary. Simply drive the car around until the range estimator is around 5-10 miles, then do a full tank of gas

    So you're telling me I can purchase a 2022 B9/B9.5 S5 and run it as a daily driver on e85? This might be the game-changer, hope to get your response soon!

    So what’s the ethanol tolerance on your 93 or 91 tune rather than stock?

    • @034MotorsportUncut
      @034MotorsportUncut  2 года назад +1

      If someone does not have the necessary ethanol content to run our E85 file (E60-E85) then we will recommend them to run our pump gas file instead.
      If someone has access to ethanol, we do not recommend them to blend E85 and pump gas while running the pump gas file.

    Who can I message over there about your ethanol sensor install? Heard you tied into the battery terminal in the engine bay instead of fishing everything through the firewall to the fuse box. LMK

      That is correct. With the fuel it kit on our B9's, we simply wired in to the positive and negative posts in the engine bays.

      Yes, though you cannot use an ethanol content analyzer.
      Simply wait 5-10 minutes before flashing from 91 to 93.
