If you have this ordered why not crank up the boost a little more and get a real tune that gives you more then 10 F*cking degrees of timing and go for broke!

actually probably more. around 550 for cams, 300 or so for valves ( or just use the trick flows, i dunno if they come with manley valves or not ), 2k for the heads, 200-250 for springs, at least 750-1000 for a port and polish+ flowbench testing.

i dont want to spend more on a tune that is gonna be used down the road anyways...
There is no rush! Your car is running fine right now. Be patient and get the TFS heads. It will make the difference between yours and everyone elses! Everyone will wonder why your car runs so much faster than theirs with the same mods with the exception of the heads.
Alot of folks questioned my cam swap and it knocked .3 tenths off and gained 7mph. The heads will have that same kind of impact!!!

well if you put it that way maybe i can save a couple grand for em...
Weak sauce. F*ckin meth injection is supposed to allow more timing not take it away. WTF.

i agree but **** it, im gonna get an intercooler now and run the meth with it make a bunch more power that way...
Lets run the intercooler into the passenger compartment where we will have the air pass through an ice chest.

the meth wont hurt but with just the IC you wont need it. its gonna drop your temps from around 200 to around 120 Easy. my Fmic on my talon dropped the temps from 245 to 95 degree's ( i was running a 3x32x16 Fmic ) HUGE

yeah i could have my kid strapped down on it when ridding around...:biggrin:
It's also probably safer to run the intercooler. I've heard of those meth lines bursting and then the engine going boom because of the extra timing without the flow of meth.

the meth can only cool the air so much, i want to run both so i can run street and strip deal, turn up the timming when the meth is activated and it also is like running a higher octane fuel...
Why not just put 2 tunes in your programmer. 1 for 91octane and 1 for 100.

why **** around with it =) hit the track with e-85 man get two tunes one for 91 and another for e-85.
e-85 is estimated around 106 octane. because its "not a petrol fuel" the oct rating is Estimated
there are 3 gas stations around SD that sell e-85

i ahve been curiouse about e 85, is there a conversion kit for that or is it just the tune?
Just remember, timing is not to infinity.
I think that I heard that you have to upgrade your fuel lines, because it will eventually eat through the stock ones or something like that. Just going off the top of my head though. I will do some research and get back to you on that.

to run e-85 there is no conversion. its just a tune and requires 20% more fuel for the same rating. hence why you would need a tune OR 20% larger injectors =)
if i wanted to run e-85 in my car i would just toss in 24 lb injectors and reduce the fuel % around 4-6%

e-85 wont. methanol will. methanol is corrosive to i think alum/copper/ and a couple other metals.
