it can if your willing to spend money (read bigger injectors, prolly a return fuel system, stand alone ems, etc)
rrev does e85 tuning and they got some pretty impressive results on supra's, e85 is great cause its about 105 octane

Hmmm.. $3.79 for 93 and $2.95 for E85...
I'm well aware that E85 is rated close to 100oct and is 85% Ethanol, I'm also well aware that Indy cars now run on E98.
Nothing wrong with asking a question. I figured the crap would destroy the seals and @#%k the computer up though.. hence why I asked. So spare me the "he must be cheap and runs 89 and changes the oil once a year when the Pepboys $14.99 special rolls around" crap.

It may be cheaper, but you will get much worse gas mileage... E85 has a higher octane rating, but it contains less energy then gas per a specific volume as compared to gasoline - hence the need for larger injectors.
For your purposes, it is not the way to go.
