Ethanol E85 with 2GR-FE ?

does someone is running the V6 with E85 and a flexfuel kit ? More torque, cheaper... I am looking about this conversion.

Years ago I accidentally filled up with it in my S2 in Germany (thinking it was super unleaded). There was list on engines that wouldn’t accept it online and if I remember correctly (it was about 10 years ago) the Toyota Celica was on the not compatible list. 
 

You probably won’t find lotus listed on any such lists but if you can find another Toyota with same engine that would be best bet to see if it’s compatible. My guess would be it isn’t in stock setup but that nothing but a guess

As soon as the ECU Master EMU Black is sorted out for my Evora S and I am sure it will pass an OBD check, I will do the swap. The EMU black is prepared for it, I already have a DW65c fuel pump and a set of 775 cc injectors waiting to be fitted. E85 is a good match with a non charge cooled setup.

Yes, the ECU Master Black can detect E85 and run accordingly. That was one of the reason I chose it too.

How would you get hold of E85 in the UK?
