We have had E10 fuel here for years but can't comment as I can't use it. Can't believe you are only just going to get it over there.

That's basically what I ran a number of years ago. I used to mix 5 litres of E85 to 40 litres of Optimax (or was it full tank? can't remember), which shows you how long ago it was

It made a big difference in torque and HP when JGM mapped it, vs not running it. I got bored with mixing at the end, so JGM mapped it again on straight fuel, and it definitely felt less perky in the mid range, and only made about 370hp on vpower/optimax (vs 390 on the e85 mix)
