User defined tables and proper sensors can allow this. Basically the tuner creates a new table to define boost based on what gear you're in. They also have to "retask" ECU sensor inputs/outputs.

Ecutek allows for "retasking" ECU inputs and outputs. Basically all the emissions sensor and crap can be disconnected and then new sensors tied in to those inputs. It pretty f'ing awesome if you ask me.

Basically an ethanol to gas ratio sensor can be tied in and then custom tables created to adjust engine parameters based on what % ethanol is in the tank.

Obviously there's a lot of "smart person" stuff that has to be done in the ecutek software to make any of these things work but that's where someone like Visconti comes in.
JARblue and GaleForce like this.

Being able to run E85 and not having to adjust your tune 2-3x a year would be nice. The real drawback running E85 is the vast difference from one pump to another and the significant change between winter and summer months.

Boost by gear is a method that is used for traction its were you can run your spring pressure in lower gears for traction,and full boost once you get traction. Now in a case where even your spring pressure still lights up the tires timing by gear can be used to pull timing tell you get traction.


This all can be adjusted by tables in the ecu.

This is where the ethanol to gas ratio sensor comes into play. It will automatically detect the ratio of ethanol to gas and adjust accordingly.

Wow, I had no idea EcuTek had some of these advanced options coming. That Ethanol sensor video is very impressive. I wonder if GTM, who is tuning my car, will look into EcuTek...

So use E85 but add ethanol, but isn't ethanol expensive itself?

Interested to see how this all works out. Unfortunately I more then likely will not be changing over even if there is a huge difference since my UpRev tune cost about $500 2 years ago and I just recently spent $400 to have it re-tuned after I had a few exhaust leak problems. Goodluck.

EcuTek added support to your ecu this morning
