Looking for 450awhp on leaded 110...
The car currently has a K & N panel filter, catless TBE, MBC @ 25psi, TurboXS FMIC & piping & has been reflashed. My desired new round of mods will include Cossie M2's/Kelford 272's, EPM O2 dump, ARP headstuds, Walbro 255 & injectors(I'm unsure of the size to get, but am thinking Precision 880's). Of course after these are installed the car will be tuned on 93 octane & leaded 110 octane fuels. Will I reach my goal? If not, how close will I be & would you suggest that I do something different? Oh...what EXACTLY do I need from Tactrix to be able to switch between 93 & 110 maps on a stock ECU? Just the "Mitsubishi Reflash Connector" or do I need the full "Open Port 2.0 with Full Adapter Set"? Thanks!

You wont need 110 to make that sort of power on 25psi, its a waste of money and you will actually lose power. If you can find E85 near you and you can drop in bigger injectors, do it.

There is one E85 station within 100-125 miles of me. I'd hate to get caught out without a way to refuel. That's why I thought if I go for a tune on 93 (for daily use), then when I want to go to the track I just plan ahead & let the car run low on fuel, I could just refuel with 110 (a few local stations sell this), switch maps & go. You really don't think I'll need to run 110? The car is a IX & I'm still on the stock turbo. I'm thinking if I spike to 30psi (hence the use of 110 for the track) I should be close to my goal. But I'm new to the Evo thing so all help is appreciated!

You could get away with 100 or 105. I also wouldnt recommend going 30psi on the stock turbo, you would probably overspeed it and it could tear itself apart. Get something like a Green, Red, or BBK.
Basically, if you use an excessively high octane fuel without much boost, it burns slow and you lose power.
