Bear in mind that many Volt owners don't burn much fuel, unless it's part of their daily commute. My buddy in Florida, our chief tuner, has a daily commute of about 70 miles. With a second gen Volt, he might be able to do it without burning gas most days. My daily commute is 7 miles so only burn gas once a month or so when we leave town. Half the gas I burned to date was driving my new car home the day I bought it, a 250 mile drive.

My point is that maybe converting to ethanol and flashing a custom tune is more of a want, rather than a need. It'll take a long time to pay for itself unless you do a lot of highway driving.
