GIAC 100 Octane

I've been running my car with the 100 octane program now for a month..roughly 700 miles and I'm probably teasing myself. Is this completely safe for the car and its longevity. I know it depends on the kinds of driving I'm doing but mile for mile driving it "normal" ...yesterday i put 111 octane in the car and it seems to drive a tad more spunkier..not sure if its in my head or not but the 100 program definitely spools faster and pulls harder.

when will champion/GIAC be coming out with the plenum and intercooler ecu upgrade that will make purchasing all 3 worthwhile?

The cylinder pressure on a stage 1, 100 octane file isn't going to be something that will cause the car to be unreliable.

We're in testing for higher stages with more hardware at this time.

Just filled up w/ 100 octane and have been running the race program since yesterday. All I can say is it's a night and day difference, about the same delta from stock tune to 93 octane as 93 to 100, IMHO. Lighting up all tires nearly at will now, lol.

That sounds so tempting. We dont have 100 octane out of the pump here, but do have 98 octane, which I think is the US 93 equivalent but I could be wrong (maybe others here based in the UAE with technical experience can shed some light). Anyways, what do you think would be a good blend with VP MS109 that would get me up to US 100?

PS when is someone going to post some acceleration videos with the GIAC. Quit teasing us with words, we want videooooo!!!

Pretty new here so forgive if this is uneducated question, but has anyone tried or entertained tuning these for e85? just came out of a gtr and e85 made that car run on a whole other level.

The issue you run into is that the factory fuel system is barely up to the task with full bolt on's and pump gas. Toss in the added fuel requirements of E85 and you just can't flow enough fuel. The GTR is a no-brainer for E85 since the port-injection fuel system can easily be upgraded, but so far nobody has developed a viable upgrade for the Porsche DFI fuel system.

you are correct, the 98 here is equivalent to 93 in the US

Here you go. This is from back in June when we first released the software. This is a 991 Turbo (NOT Turbo S) with the GIAC software, BMC filters, and Tubi Race exhaust system. Dragtimes was there and took some video but for some reason they haven't posted it on their site. Also, 60-130 during this run was 7.3 seconds.
