Everything that get you more power is not allowed. Only if the TÜV sayes YES and in 99,9% the TÜV says NO

Install it invisible and everything is fine.

I would choose E85 too, but there are only few E85 stations in Germany. A German Tuner can get a very powerful map out of V-Power 100 !!

Mump can tell you how fast it is on the Nürburgring LOL

YES !! You get 100 V-Power on 99% of all Shell stations and also Ultimate 100 on 99% of all ARAL stations.

But if you get only ESSO card US soldier discount you are fu..... !! Esso have only 98 octane.

In Germany it is all ROZ !! So 98 is your 93 but trust me... With the 100 octane you have no deficit. Your mapping in Germany must be completely different than in the USA.

An aggressive USA mapping can't survive the german "NO LIMIT AUTOBAHN" !! You need a mapping in Germany with less ignition because you can drive 270kph (and faster) 15mins and longer in the night if there is no traffic... The stress on the complete engine and drivetrain is extreme high on german highways.

With your mods you should not try to drive top speed without a German mapping. Take a look at your EGT and AFR. Normally I drive all the day around 180 - 200kph on the Autobahn over long time. Especially the FP Red doesn't like high loads on high RPM and EGT. This turbo is not made for this stress, so you need to check everything.
