I'm running a 21psi spike on 93 octane, but I also don't have a flash yet.

no alcohol or meth yet, but with the bigger injectors and a good tune 24 pounds is safe for me.

I've been as high as 24 with no knock on 93/no meth, but 22 pulls a lot better because of the timing advance.

Yes, on a mustang dyno but the tune is conservative right now until I get my meth kit on

ive run 27 psi on our 35R on 94 (lucky for us in the northeast) octane sunoco with no knock 11.2 afr peak...

stock head gasket, arps, cams, 35R .63, 880 injectors etc.... utec etc....

but, i will run 25psi on the final tune on pump.

we have seen serious differences depending on the brand of fuels also.... i tend to stock to sunoco or mobil.
