I'm thinking, based primarily on drsag's data that I'll be good at E-seventysomething at 8 psi. I haven't seen any reports of E content greater than high seventies. I'm hoping that I still have enough headroom in the 70's to still be safe in the unlikely event that I get a tank of full-up E85
You just reminded me of another thing I would now say, was a mistake with my build. Instead of adding the air fuel and boost gauge, I wish I would have installed another gauge that shows %alky.

Why?
With the Maggie, there is nothing to see related to boost. Bottom line is, unless the belt is slipping, boost is maxed when you smash the throttle and stays there until you let go. That means the boost gauge is pretty useless.

I need to get a new gauge ordered to swap it out.
