You can run a few gallons per tank everything else being stock with the JB4 on map 1, 2 or preferably 5 (big gains).

Anything more than say, 20% (so about 3 gallons), and you should add the BMS flex fuel wires, allowing you to safely run higher concentrations.

Above 50%, and I think some cars will start to reach the limits of the stock fuel pumps.
