Are you doing several pulls to calibrate the different fuel before you do a comparison pull?

Where the E85 mix and 100 mix can produce the same octane rating (example 95 octane) it will take more e85 mix to make the same power than the 100 mix. So the car has to learn that it needs more e85 mix vs. 100 mix...

I felt something similar driving back from the e85 station and feeling the power difference as the JB4 adapted...pull one....pull two then once it adapted pull three, holy shit it was FUN. Effortless acceleration...and I only have JB4 & DCI!!!
