Default 5 STAR E30-E50 Tunes

In ordered the E30 & E50Tunes for my 2018 F150
Truck has only 1000 mileage so loaded only the E30 Friday
Difference between stock is phenomenal
Will take it easy until the 5k oil change when I will install full synthetic
Have the 93 octane tune installed in my 2018 Expedition
Was a huge increase in throttle response & overall driveability
However not even close to the E30 tune for wot performance & throttle response
Going to order the E30 & E50 tunes for my EXPY as well
WHOO HOO!!!!!

e85 mixed with 93 .. but you have to calculate the amount of gallons of e85 and 93 to give you each amount

I mix E85 & 91 octane E10
I mix it about 60% E85 & 40% 91 octane E10
Works great even in non tuned ECOBOOST engines
Not an absolute verification without a tester but it works fine for me

E85 Costs $2.49 & Premium $3.78 at the chevron near me
Mileage is 85% of 93 octane E10 with E50 mix
So cost is way cheaper than using straight premium fuel with lots more power

I think 85% is optimistic, but even at a realistic 75% it’s still a better deal at 2.49 vs 3.78 there. Where are you? Here, 93 is $2.69-2.99 and e85 is $2.25 if you can find it.

@MikeWolfe
Mike,
Have you tried the E50 tune yet? Trying to figure out which I am going to go with.

thanks, I also have a 18 Expedition and I've seen you over there as well.

E-85 here in Vegas runs $2.45 and 91 runs $2.89 at Costco. If Prem was higher here it might be worth it.
