One oil company in Ireland that supplies a 5% ethanol blend (E5) quotes a higher octane rating than standard petrol - some people who have imported Japanese Domestic Market cars say that they can avoid an ECU remap by using E5 instead of the standard dishwater that passes for fuel here. I've read studies that claim that the ethanol will damage brass components in carbs etc over time
