IF you are upgrading everything to do a TT, such a big nut, what is the $500 extra dollars it takes to upgrade everything. Tune with Ecuteck and all is good. Very small price to pay in my book.

E85 cars from the factory use different fuel system components that will tolerate the higher ethanol percentages.

You can put it in and run it without the E85 conversion, but you will eventually have failures of the fuel system.
