Well, I was suggesting this as an opportunity for for to add a flex fuel option from the factory. With an unlocked ECM this is not hard. Also, having put a vehicle through the CARB EO process personally, the cost is the same whether you are certifying a kit for 10 vehicles or 10,000 vehicles. Ford is missing an opportunity to get ecoboost performance tunes on E85 (whether or not they pursue a CARB EO).
I fully understand what you’re talking about but the unlocked PCM part to this date hasn’t been an option. I would love to run e85 through my bronco with added boost but we’re just not there yet. Hopefully it becomes avaiable to us soon.
I'm not sure at the moment as we're still editing a bunch of content we've already filmed with our 2.7L and expect to take delivery of our Bronco Raptor next week. We've got a lot going on but we'll do our best to get to it as soon as possible.
tires growing faster than my waistline!
Pretty sure LP answered that question a few pages back.
Octane: As I’ve discussed briefly before the calibrations from Ford Performance are recommended to be used with premium fuel. The higher the octane used the better the results. For those who are concerned about octane ratings just in case you’re unable to get premium fuel the calibration will still work with 87 octane. With that being the case if you can only get 87 we recommend not beating on the vehicle until higher grade fuel is avaiLable. However the same logic used in the factory calibration which adapts to octane and either adds or takes timing away is still used on the Ford Performance cal. Once you put higher grade fuel in the cal will adjust to have higher timing which leads to better performance.
The calibration from Ford Performance wouldn't affect additional mods such as the cold air intake or intercooler in any negative way. Both of those mods are designed to work with the factory cal and will work the same with the Ford Performance one.
We have these in stock and ready to ship.
