OP,

IIRC std tune/hardware should cope with ~ e20 content w/o issue.

From you photo, my read is that yr local pump gas goes from 87/e10 thru to 93/e30, such that gas is a low octane base product blended with added ethanol to bump up the octane. The higher the eXX blend, the higher the octane.

I'd run the 91/e20 initially as I think you might struggle with an e30 blend....

Here in the UK, we have SVP fuel [99RON (AKI 95.5-96.5) with e5]. I've add ethanol 1.5-2 imp gallons to a full tank to get a ~e20 blend to boost octane and the car works really well on BM3 OTS racegas & e30 tune as SVP (base product) here has higher octane and less ethanol content as the starting point.

HTH, BP
