[QUOTE="Braaaaptor, post: 1754897, member: 40330"] Nowadays I don't know who's thirstier, me or the truck... Yup, lots of guys run E50 or E85 with a tune on here, I've actually never heard of the 6.2 running on Ethanol! Drop in MPG will definitely be a factor, rough math for me is if I get >10mpg its a cost savings. I was doing that math based solely on E85 and not an E50 blend which would reduce the cost benefit a bit. E85 ~$3.89/gal on gas buddy and 91oct is $6.19/gal and worse in some places. Absolutely will use Win's magic if/when I decide to pull the trigger. I already have upgraded IC and have been stage 2 goosetuned for the last 18k miles. Thinking that I'll start with an E50 tune to avoid the $1600 HPFP for the time being until I get bored of mixing. Thanks for chiming in with your experiences, I assume if people were having issues it would've popped up on here by now but gotta ask just to be safe. I'm at about 16mpg stage 2 tuned with a mix of city/freeway and a fun day or two a month thrown in there. Like I said above, the breakeven point for me is about 10-12mpg to make it viable on a $$$ basis.... that's what I'll tell the wife... SPG is where its at! [/QUOTE]
