Yea, sure does.
I'm not sure it's a significant decrease though. I ran 2 of 4 events with E85 and the other two with 108 octane and they were about the same.

Different days, too many variables to take into consideration.

I was surprised at how well it stayed under 250 considering pushing the car at about 8/10's running relatively higher boost pressure with stock timing curves.

My high level comment to the OP would be it seems a bit high , but maybe he's a much better driver than I am ;-).

I'd have to go check my program tables for my E9X 335 and see when the ECU starts pulling timing for IAT and Oil temp but if I recall its 128 and 256 consecutively. Maybe the same for N55 or maybe different.
