If everything on the car other than the Flex Fuel Setup is bone stock, you MAY be able to run 100% E85 but it would be pushing it. This would of course requiring tuning and loss of warranty. The fuel system is VERY limiting on these cars like previous LSA engines. You will probably need a low side and even injectors for full E and a fuel lobe upgrade will be necessary for much boost or aftermarket blowers. All in all, I think a Meth setup may be a simpler and more straightforward setup that most tuners can setup very effectively. E85 requires around 30%-40% more fuel. So your octane goes up and price per gallon goes down, but your consumption and fuel system needs go vastly up.
