    Wandered over to the Regal they had at the dealership and was telling the sales lady that it was the same motor my car had in it, kept telling me she was sure it wasn't the same Technically she was right since its a different RPO (LHU) it was still funny.

    But this does leave me to wonder, since the LHU is essencially the same motor, couldn't the algorithm for the E85 used in it be ported over to the LNF ecu in some manner to enable a sort of dual auto switching tune? So that the guys that have the E85 tune don't need to get retuned to run gasoline.

    2011 Regal CXL Turbo has 220hp 258tq
    2012 Regal GS is supposed to have 255hp 295tq with the same LHU motor.
