E85 Timing map (haltech ps1000 primarily)

Hello my rotary friends!

Going to the dyno in 2 weeks with my RX7-T2 and i am going to run e85 premixed with benol or triboron, Got enough fuel and turbo for 400rwhp and my ignition system consists of AEM smart-coils, MSD wires and BR9EIX spark plugs, FFE trigger wheel.
Engine is stockport S4.

Thing is i would like some help with a nice timing table and split table for my application, i know that its gonna need tweaking when on the dyno but something to start with.
I want it to be rather safe as i prefer not to go to agressive on timing since it feels pretty useless in a rotary but i think e85 could use some more timing then regular fuel?

My tuner also gave me a heads up that e85 on the street sucks since it will flood easy and cause all kind of troubles but i cant see why? I want the cooling benefits and the detonation protection since its both a weekend warrior and a trackday car and my engine is not studded....

i wouldn't say that it sucks on the street, to me the ONLY downfall of e85 is that it is hard to cold start in the winter. When temps get below 40 degrees or so it's a pain in the *** to get the car to start, but you can always spray any kind of flammible fluid in your intake and it will crank right up.
