Default Re: E85 Powered VR4?

I've also been under the impression that E85 is seldom 85% ethanol. I've heard the mixture varies from pump to pump. Stock flex fuel cars compensate for this with a fast refresh rate on the 02s and I've also "heard" that there's a sensor which detects the ethanol percent before the fuel even reaches the engine. Is any of this correct?
