Well, what ya gonna do if you have detonation and your knock sensor doesn't pick it up? With E85, that can happen. Blow a headgasket, break a ring land, and the engine shows signs of detonation but you don't see in your logs. Mostly happens to folks on pump E85.
My engine builder told me to be on barrel E85 if running the higher boost settings. Ignite Red or Ethanol One R.
