No, even if it's bone stock, I could see a SMALL gain from E85, especially on a hot day where knock is more likely. But we are talking about a few hp, and to me it's not worth the effort to seek out E85 over that.

Now, these E85 BMS tunes which can show a 10-20-30whp gain over the same car on 93 octane, why the hell not?
