UPDATE
February 2, 2020, got myself a B-Day present, set of MSD Coils.
Let me tell you what, I don't think they do gain any horse power, but they do complement your upgrades.
What I noticed is this, idle is smoother, on the cold starts specially
I always had this short hesitation when I am low RPM's and hitting full throttle, now it's gone
I feel quicker response when hitting gas.

and do they look good or what???

I agree.  They work great with my E30 tune and battery of mods.  However, I keep my stock coils in truck just in case.

This is to the people who is wanting to move to E30 or higher ethanol or already switch and dealing with mixing dilemma.

First, get Free phone app name: e85Cal.  Great tool, did I mentioned it's free? :)
Second, I have my SCT BDX Scanner running all the time and I recently put Fuel level % on the screen so I know exactly how much fuel in the tank, exactly...
Third:
Get Flex fuel sensor:  Continental Flex Fuel Composition Sensor E85 Fit for Chevy Equinox GM 13577429
You can find them as cheap as $29 shipped for new one on e-bay
Get this Bluetooth sensor from Fuel-It, you need BlueTooth ONLY one, $199:  https://www.fuel-it.com/bluetooth-flex-fuel-analyzer/
and you need some fittings to connect all together, this is what I got, it will make sense once you have it, worked great:
TWO- RUSSELL 640853 EFI ADAPTER FITTING -6 AN MALE TO 3/8" SAE QUICK DISCONNECT FEMAL
ONE- VIBRANT 10702 -6AN Female Union Adapter AN to AN

Put it all together, get the Fuel-It app for your phone and for under $300 you got yourself great peace of mind and no more guessing work.

Let me know if you have any questions, was pretty straight forward and easy, 15 min install, hope it helps someone...

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Nice thread on the whole process.

You are not that far away. I am just South of Reading.

3-12-2020 Update

Did some maintenance to the car, all fluids changes, PTU is a royal pain to get to with the PPE Catted downpipes, so I have to drill drain hole on the bottom later and update you on that if I can get to drilling without removing the downpipe anyway, thats for later.

Still have a issue with boost leak, somewhere small leak, Matt pointing me to the waistgate closed 100% and still not holding boost, I start up with 18psi and by the end of the gear with fully closed WG drop to 12-13.
I already removed "NoiseMaker" pipe and replaced with aftermarket, checked blow-off valves membrane, all good there, check all connections, kind of did everything I can think of, did pressure test and still dropping pressure, so this Saturday weather is nice, I am getting to the bottom of that, will find that boost leak and fix it, bottom line
OR if my turbos are "tires" new blowers will be on the way, anyway I will report in few days with updates.
Thank you all

if you have a large boost leak youd hear something .. Im betting on wastegate.  Mine was bad and did not throw any codes at all.  supper annoying.  But that means you can go ATP\CHP and get modern new light weight turbines!
