Glad Ray is getting to play with E85/E98 as when I bring him back down here thats what I am going to retune with! I have never driven (work, etc..) on kill mode as its too damn $$$. I save it for the track.
The VP Pro Import, your supposed to make a bit more power. Its main advantage is the octane rating is higher allowing for more boost. Alot of guys run it when they go over 40psi (if they're not running meth) because theres much less chance of pre-ignition. It also has a much faster burn rate too.

Wow! 3 pages deep and thats your deepest thought? Good to know....
If you read what was asked of me, nowhere was it asked about E85/98. The question was only about q116 vs Pro Import, but Im glad your so informative. Input appreciated.

Glad you delete posts when you don't like what's said. Keep up the good work..

Seem's to me he wanted to know the advantage or benefit of running e85/e98 vs Q16 or VP import..
But your the know it all you should've known that..
Have a nice day..

Good point. However, my point was that whether you say it's 1680, 1600, 1596, or 1500, it's not hugely limiting your power potential.

Seen your car a couple weeks ago when I went to rays to pick up my buddies car. Looked good. Hopefully see what your pushing soon since my other buddy is getting his build done pretty damn close to your car by ray also.
