I have been running between 40-45% E85 mixed with 93 octane for 8 months with no issues in the logs (JB4 map 5). I dont really understand the whole "backend flash" process, so I need to get educated on that
Piggybacks have limited control over fueling. Actually, they have almost no control over fueling. So you need to add a flash tune to properly handle VANOS, timing, fueling and trims, etc. You'll run out of headroom with a piggyback around E30-40. With that said, the JB4 has some nice features when it comes to AFR failsafes.
