I am surprised by the lack of knowlege, this is nothing new and Saabs respond great to E85 and Nordic and Maptun and the Racing team Trollspeed and Nick at GS have been running E85 for years and years and racestuff says they rarely even tune for petro any more since the benifits of E85 are so large. The stoich ratio for E85 can be calculated to around 9.7, but most tune to around 11.5 to 12.5 for optimum performance and I even go a little bit leaner when I really want to get the power out of a set-up. There are pleanty of dynos on my website and on Genuinesaab.com and Maptun showing this to be the "real world facts"

I just posted up another E85 with gt3071wg, 450whp at about the same air fuel ratio. Here are 3 of them.
