Yeah, should be. Even gasoline quality can vary quite a bit though. So when pushing to higher boost levels I think the ethanol sensor is worth the added peace of mind. All the components can be had for $50 and simple to install. I am thinking I will add one and just retard timing 1 degree or so for e70.

This gives a good quick explanation and list of parts needed....

Hondata ethanol content sensor

It goes in your return line, and once wired into ecu you can add fuel and ignition compensation for whatever levels of ethanol you want to run.

I will probably do e85 next year and do away with the dizzy and run coils.
Gonna tune on 93. I think 500 whp on the streets will be nasty with the right suspension. I’m running the blox drag suspension. But sorry for the delay guys I’ve been waiting on CSS to send me my **** back, The guy told me it would be two weeks and it’s been over two weeks...

This is looking pretty sweet, very promising items rolling in. I'm excited to see them put to good use.

Looks great, but also looks like you're going to have to roll those fenders.

thank u sir. I didn’t think I was going to like those rooms as much as I do but yeah you are right I’m going to have to roll my fenders for sure. I’m not going to slam it. Just low enough to conceal the fender gap

Well guys i might need some help.
Got everything in. Uploaded base map to start it. (Only thing i did was select 4 bar map sensor and did the fuel for the injectors.) Tuning software is s300 v3 , it cranks but not start, it wants to start if i give it gas. It’s almost like it’s flooding out. 🤦🏻*♂️

What base map did you pick? What injectors you using and what settings do you put in the injector parameters? What fuel are you using? Got fuel pressure?

Check mechanical timing is good?
