Who knows... But I think I'm getting a Cobb AP with my christmas $ anyway, so that should be a lot better.
Yes exactly that is why I went to United to. But plz keep me posted on the Cobb AP as I am researching it too and if it is pretty successful then I might go that route.

Is Rebel the name of the station Al? The place I found is http://www.haycockpetroleum.com/index.asp they carry VP.

How much is the fuel a gallon? Its $6 a gallon here and its Sunoco.

for you guys with the X, I amstill working with Dynojet on their piggyback system. They are supposed to have a working model soon. I know they were fabbing the connectors last i talked to them. It's going to be a full functioning system, able to map out everything in the ECU. I'll keep u updated once i start testing it out for them, but I also have my eye on the Cobb AP. That thing looks freaking sweet for 700 bucks.


btw merry xmas everyone. Weather is great in phoenix. its drizzling, but its still 60 degrees.

ya haycock is where I get my C-16 and meth. As far as the rebel 100 (pump) it's 6$ a gallon still. But from our findings down at dougs Dyno we tuned my RS on both and made more on the E85 and it's only 1.75$

Sunoco makes great fuels....The pump 100 we have here is probably 96 motor octane, Jeff. Not ideal, but still way better than the 91 **** we have at the pump. It is actually fairly widely available too. I have 3 stations within 2 miles of me that carry it. Have you considered e85, like Alan suggested?

e85 is nice when the fuel is consistent... I have yet to find a station that can keep my misfires away, maybe it is winter blend? I'm going to gap down my plugs and see if it works, if not, going to switch back to 100 tune

Right on Joe sounds good and keep us posted for sure bro!

I got my hands on a Zchip (came tuned for 93 octane map & higher elevation), but havent installed or played with it yet due to my car crazyness.

Heard you were having a problem with the E85.... I've only filled up twice both times over at the Eastern and Windmill Rebel and haven't had any problems yet.

My last 2 tanks I have ran, I didn't fill up at my usual station, and have had major misfire issues. Since this has been a cold winter for us, most stations are using e70 or e78 from what I know. I just backed off my boost to 24psi and haven't had any trouble since.

Just went and filled up at the rebel (windmill & eastern) put in 11 gallons. Seems to still all be good. I'm running 30psi.
