This was also done with stock injectors and a stock pump -- worked perfectly fine, holds a clean AFR all the way to fuel cut (7800 rpm). Fuel economy while cruising on the freeway at 75mph was actually the same if not 1-2mpg better than pump gas. Go figure.

Sorry, but there is absolutely no way that your car gets better gas mileage with E85 over E15 or less pump gas.
