so im just trying to figure out which route i want to go. Was just looking for some pros and cons.
 
Biggest con once tuned for e85 and you are caught somewhere without it you cannot boost until retuned. If you have a stable supply of e85 then absolutely. It burns colder, you can run higher boost and make more power. In FL where I am it is scarce so I do not have the exp with it I wish I could.
 
By boost I mean to the full max cap you tuned to with e85 just so we are clear LOL.
 
It depends if your DSM is your DD or if its toy. Mine is my DD so E-85 is completely out of the picture at least for now. the fuel mileage is not worth it for daily driving. As other have said, it must be available around you to run it as well. The power gains however make it worth it 100% for any non DD or weekend fun car.
