No station is year round unfortunately bro. They all vary slightly and different times. However that is the highest e85 I've seen!

Tempted to give what a try? tune for e-85?

I would say go for it. You live in San Jose so you have quite a few stations in your area.

If you plan on map switching between E-85 and 91 I would highly reccomend getting at a minnimum a wide band. I have the zietronics kit with the warning buzzer so if I lean out it gives me an alert buzzer, and a light that lights up.

My tune is so smooth though that the last time I got a crap tank of E-85 I knew immeadiately, and as much of a pain in the butt it was I just stayed out of boost the whole tank.

Car will pass on E85 with stock everything and just a tune, fp, and injectors. Nothing you could visually see.

Is this a trick question?
I go to the smog station and get smogged.

I mean I put on my stock downpipe first, because the aftermarket catted one won't pass visual, but ... yeah, I just go get it smogged. Done it twice on E85.

It's 6 years for new cars. Since yours is a 2011 you are not due until 2017.

My 2007 is due for its first time this year.
