Toomnymods,

If you are NA then you only need e85, 47# injectors (http://www.buyfordracing.com/product...%252dLU47.html), and a good tune.

thx yager.. probably will still do the o/r x pipe so i can get a good measurable increase in hp/tq probably get about a 20hp increase from ditching cats and going to e-85.. plus im sure AED will pick up some ponies over what bama is doing.. Hopefully I can get it up to 425-430rwhp.. then start saving for some rims and longtubes..

I ran it for almost 2 months earlier this year. I tested it the first 3 tanks and it was always e90 or better so I stopped testing. This was in Feb-Mar of 2013 at the Kroger at 121/Coit

I stick with Exxon/mobil and Chevron and have had good luck. Steve said it best in a post a few months ago. When you get gas make sure you get 20$ or more because there will be some residual 87 from the person before left in the line.

There is no reason to bash anyone or any company here, that's uncalled for, I run a safe bama tune, I'm sure an AED or another could get me another 5 to 10 horse, but not free like bama.. and I drive with my hood open all the time!!! Ace ventura style head out the window! All the kids are doing it these days... you guys make good points about the data logging tunes vs dyno but ... I'll have to test it out.. and I wasn't suggesting the other companies could see the other companies tune I'm suggesting they outright purchased one to compare that's all, 3 years ago I bet Lund and others that had inside info were better. But now they are all really close.

fordplay,

Ace Ventura style FTW!!!

On a different note, if you purchase a tune from a company you cannot simply see the settings in the tune with the SCT dealer software as the file format is completely different. When you use the SCT software as a dealer or a proracer (as SCT calls it), you make your tune then you save it in one format and then must convert it into another to send to a customer thereby encrypting it. If you want to see what is in the tune file as a customer, you either have to have the dealer send you the tune file in the dealer format or you can try to datalog the car and you can start to make some educated guesses about what certain settings are based on what you see in the datalogs but you will not see what really is in the tune.
