Cons to E85 -none
Unless you're trying to drive your car when it's 40* out and you left it sitting outside for 2 days.

^That shouldn't be a problem if the tune was done well.
E85 is probably the best thing there is if you want to make over 400 hp with no worries. If you don't just run 93
I let my evo sit from October-April last year and it was fine. Started right up and had no problems.
My fuel filter in the pump assembly got shitted up tho. I have removed it and now run a fuelab filter. Not sure about s2k
If you store it for winter I would put some 93 in it and run it for a while. The regular gasoline will clear out the lines and other fuel parts.

I have a little battery as well...

If storing your car for a while with e85 filled to the top of the tank and running ID injectors, just pull the injectors and pickle them. To do this you only need to hook a 9 volt battery to the terminals, which will open the injectors and then spray WD40 through them and disconnect the battery. You'll be set for the next time you're ready to run and won't have any rusting issues. This is how a tech at ID told me to do it BTW. You can also put some e85 stabilizer in the tank to control moisture.
