Default e85 cold start

hi i just switched over to e85 on the 1.8L LS/vtec, Ive been street tuning with the hondata s300, and so far everything feels good and butt dyno says it pullls slightly harder. im planning on renting a dyno soon to finish the tune. So far, the old problem has been cold start. Ive googled around and it seems playing with the cold start in the fuel trim % setting under parameters might help. ive also read increasing the cranking base pulse will also help. Just wanted to post to make sure all this is correct and ask for any suggestions or tips before i play with it .. thanks

Simply adjust the cranking fuel trim % and cranking base pulse vs ect.

yes that was exactly what i was planning to do after googling a bit lol. i just wanted to post here to see if the "research" was correct.

so far , ive read of somebody using kpro , and they multiplied their cranking base pulse below 67 ect by 3 and had good success with it.

another question is , by adjusting all this , how can i tell if im going the right track with the increments ? .. or if i overdid it , and have to reduce a little ?
