I had a lazy day and didn't install the data cable, but I did do about 50 miles of driving. I have to say, if I'm not falling for placebo effect, I think I like e85. The car seems to pull harder, I even saw it hit 16-17psi relatively easily in 3rd gear. I don't remember seeing it hit that boost level since the daytime temps got over 60. I'll have to see if it keeps up, or if it was a one time deal. Also I think the exhaust note sounds different too? Might be a bit less smooth, but in a good way, more full/growly sounding.
