Hi, would it be ok to use E85 on stock N52 engine, stock ECU?
The goal would be to reduce emissions and "save the planet".

P.S. I guess I posted question in wrong section. Could moderators move it to https://www.e90post.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=35 ?

While you probably could run something like e30 and your fuel trims could compensate, your fuel lines are not made for e85 so will corrode more quickly. You'll use a lot more fuel as e85 is significantly less efficient and you'll be driving with your fuel trims maxed out. It's probably 'possible' but would have zero benefits, even on the environment as any green savings would be eaten up by your increased fuel consumption.
