I have a 2008 Ram 1500 with the flex 4.7l. I've noticed various programmers for the engine, but what I don't see as a option is programmed settings for the ethanol part. E85 is about 100+octane in most cases. I see some have settings for the different gas types as such 87,89,91,93 for horsepower increases. Has anybody done or make a option with the ethanol? I know it burns much faster ( at almost twice the rate of gas ) but has a higher resisteance to detination than premium gas. You could easily make more power on the E85 and safer, but I do know the tuning aspect of the E85 is a lot different than standard gas. My truck runs a lot harder ( throttle response & power wise ) than on gasoline. I was just wondering if anybody knows if the tuners has a setting for this in E85 form. Thanks for any advise!

Guess I came to the wrong site. All this programmer talk on here and nobody knows anything about my question? Really? Not even the guys that work at these companies? Ill go find another site with more than shatree's posting. Guess my question was to complex or maybe I was asking a bunch of nobody's something that I know more about. Have a great day everybody.
