also on another note got the tune in and drove about 50 miles and the car runs really good dident go above 3200rpms yet or get into any boost, once I do the break in mileage and re check everything I’ll get on it and let ya know.

Alright here we go!!!!
409whp with 93 octane
430whp with %30 e85 mix
very happy with the numbers only thing To improve now is the smaller pulley wich would get me to 450whp but I am satisfied with where the car is at now

Very Nice!

So does the power actually taper at 6.2k rpm or is that just the limiter kicking in? It seems that the e85 have much better top end.without tapering.

the power continuous to climb with the e85 after 6.2k the graph just doesn’t show it so actually I should be up to like 440 ish
