I took my 2014 1LE to these guys in July. They were great. I didn’t get this sensor put in yet however I will be once I can nab some American Racing Long Tubes. The tune they did for me is fantastic with basic mods and well worth the money spent. All the guys I met and talked to were very cool and didn’t treat me like a noob. Customer service was the best and I’ve told many friends about my experience and will continue business with CMS! Thank you guys from my Camaro and I!

heavyjunkops if you plan to supercharge or turbo or a big heads/cam pack you will need LT4 fuel pump and injectors. Otherwise you are fine up to around 525-550rwhp is what most tuners day. The Lt1 injectors have a nice amount of extra room Built into them.

Yes, the cal still has a low octane timing table, and the knock sensors are still fully functional. The flex fuel cal has zero effect on those parameters.

Yes. But, it's very expensive and very impractical. It's impossible to actually find pure ethanol at a pump. While pure ethanol is a great fuel for high power.. it's really exclusive to race cars. Long term use in road cars cause a lot of long term damages as it's corrosive. Plus it has a lower energy density. However! In race cars that's not an issue. As their motors are rebuilt after each race (sometimes more than once during a race depending on the rules). So their corrosive characteristics do not take a role like it would sitting in a car overnight for years. Finally, E100 is absolutely possible as a fuel source. But, it wouldn't be wise to run it in long term tracking. It burns at an extremely high rate with it losing 30% of "standard" fuels' efficiency. Power bump. Sure. Practical? No. Not E100. E85 is a better alternative. Which, before this comment spirals on knocking down E85 as a fuel. E85 is great to use when it's time to play. But, I personally wouldn't run it 24/7 nor daily it into work.
