Pretty happy on E85 (dyno)

I'll start by saying I know...different dynos/different days. Regardless, I'm happy so far with my not yet finished E85 tunes from AED.

I did a dyno day at True Street Motorsports a few months back in the heat with an offroad H pipe and drop in K&N air filter and ended up with 397hp and 387tq. Since then, the weather has obviously cooled off some. It was probably 95 out the day I did that dyno and it was 70 deg yesterday. Since then, I added a GT500 catback, swapped to 47# injectors, and loaded up with E85 on Fri night. That's it for mods. I was hoping for 415 to the wheels on the dyno at HPP known as "The Heartbreaker" by shop employees. Another member here also noted that he dynoed 8 or so HP lower at HPP than at TSM. I was ecstatic and pleasantly surprised with my results:

I've got a small dip around 5700 or so, but again, these aren't final tunes. I still need to run through a half tank of gas so I can do some datalogging and get it dialed in. Car so far pulls like an animal on E85!

Great gains, and yes it was me that dyno'd about 8HP less on that dyno. I am going to do the E85 now too.

E85 FTW!
Extremely low emissions and power gains with a HUGE margin of safety, at the cost of reduced fuel economy.

The only "issue" I have so far with the corn is that I can smell it, or at least notice it pretty much all the time. It smells very sweet.
