Hawaii is switching over to E-10 Gasoline/Ethanol mix. Im not to familiar with it but I know E-10 has different BTU's and burn characteristics than regular gasoline. Im planning to get a chipped ECU for one of my projects from a H-T sponsor. Do i need to get a specific tune for E-10?

 

yes you do need to tune your car with whatever gas it is you choose to use.

you also cannot run ethanol in any car....i think there is a list somewhere of what ones you're able to.

99% of pump gas has some form of ethanol present.

i dont think you understand what i mean...E-10 to be specific. there is a list i got from a gas station of the vehicles that it CAN be used in..


edit- come to think of it ours here might be called e-85. and thats why you cannot run it in just any car.
