Rick thanks much for taking the time to reply to me on this forum.
Can you expand at all on the e85 question?
Its my opinion that the high pressure fuel pump and injectors do not have enough capacity to run e85 since, on average, e85 requires a fuel system to put out roughly 20% more fuel at a given HP range vs. gasoline.
Do you agree with this and have you ran into this problem at all in the SHO platform?
Is there anyone working on fuel system upgrades for the EB?
Thanks again!!

CRAP!!! That's he deal breaker or me
I wanted to be able to go from 87 tuned daily. To 91 for weekend dodge hemi hunting. Then be able to return t stock if I need to take It in for service. Guess I'm looking to super chips

I will have to get with our tuner on this. I do the web sales and marketing, so I don't have the answer for that.
I don't know of anyone working on fuel system upgrades.
Most Taurus' go low 14's stock and we have many going 12.4-12.6 with just a CAI, catback, and our tune. The low 12-second car has these mods and meth injection and no need for more fuel.

Man you guys do awesome work! I've been wanting to get custom tunes for our SHO and my f150 Ecoboost for awhile. I'm still waiting on the warranty for both vehicles to end. Then I'll be buying.

I too would like to see a little more flexibility with the fuel selection. I just hope yall have enough tuners to cover the pre orders and then some! Also we need a video of a stock sho vs the tuned f150 eco to get a good comparison lol.
