does the flex fuel sensor allow you to go higher than e85 as well?

Yes. You can scale to E100.

I think there is no point to go that high. Currently I'm at 25psi on e80 and no signs of detonation. Knock volts less than 1.5 at 20ignition timing. probably can take it to 30 PSI and reduce the timing.

Not to mention E98 is almost twice (and in some places, three times) the cost of E85. indi00, they've switched to a 'winter blend' in my area. I'm stuck at E75 for the time being.

I just bought the flex fuel sensor and harness u listed. What gauge are u running? Is it possible to setup the aem serial gauge to read ethanol content?

Awesome I'm running the Zeitronix gauge: http://www.zeitronix.com/Products/ECA/ECA.shtml I'm not sure if AEM serial gauge is compatible with the flex sensor.

Thinking about doing an E85 swap (just had a station pick it up near me).

I know I need bigger injectors (2000cc seem to be the consensus)
The question I have is the fuel pump. Is there an "s2000 460lph?" or will any pump pretty much go in there? Also, wiring in a relay is a must to get good voltage to the pump correct?

And are you on a manual boost controller, or having aem control boost?

I using AEM to control a 3 port MAC solenoid (boost controller). You definitely want to run a relay direct to the battery (using the factory pump wire as the 'trigger' to complete the relay circuit). I don't know if there is a pump kit specific to the S2000; I simply used a universal pump/install kit.

AEM gauge cannot display the ethanol content because the output if the sensor is varied ohms rather than voltage.

I interpreted his question to be referring to AEM (EMS) rather than AEM (TruBoost). Rugby_Guy, can you clarify?
