Thanks

Spending 5 figures on the above is high.. and in my opinion, you will hit low 600s max unless you will run the car at 1.7 bar... and thats somewhat dangerous in my opinion...
for $3k you can tune, install a meth kit and have 10k left over for some race gas... and that will go a long way.... mix it and add it when you need octane... the math is easy... just saying...
