Todd you can log the signal but tge scaling is slightly different iirc.
To the second question. The MAP sensor doesn't make a difference in the operation of an open BOV. The air has already been measured by the MAF therefore the fuel has been added. I don't think you can compensate fast enough to avoid a rich condition.

So with having two tunes available is it an option to run e85 on one tune and 91 octane on the other? Meaning is there an e85 tune available for n tune? Also what is required to run e85? Software change only?

I did it so I could get a little experience tuning with e85, and to see if I could save any money at the pumps. I do save, but its only about $3-5 per tank. Nothing to get excited about.
If you wanted to run e85 in your NA, it is possible. Rogue advertises a way to switch between tunes, so you could run gas on one side, and e85 on the other. You *might* get away with only changing the FPR to a 3bar, for the extra fueling needs of e85, but larger injectors might be needed as well.... Rogue will have do the calculations to know for sure.

Yeah it's plenty loud. I was surprised it didn't quiet it down much. I ran it open for a long time then finally built a pipe to recirc and not much difference really

There isn't a need to run e85 in an NA car. Octane isn't an issue for us.

engine timing, that would be a game changer in the N/A world also.
That setting would work with water injection also; so head work, more compression and a more aggressive cam and you should be able to pull more power out of the N/A's on the base 2.5, I would think at the least 944S power levels?

Yeah I knew that would be coming!I wanna *** load of mods also! (I only got a butt load of mods)
Lots of EVO's and STI's out here and they all sound like appliances no soul. I wanna sound as crazy as the old school N/A crazy *** modded 911's back in the day!
My 951 is not a DD anymore so what the hell!

Being in NE you should have easy access to E85 right?
I think any 951 owner should run e85 if it is close by. Way cheaper than 93, especially now, and is about 105 octane and with the cooling effects some say up to 110. Win, win, win.
Plus Rogue can easily have you set up for e85 and 20+ psi all day long.

So if/when I upgrade to the M Tune I could run E85 because it is all over here I will run it.
But is there really any gain with the stock 26/6 on E85? Doesn't it pretty much die at 15-17psi?
