For example: Take a pulley, headers, cai, 93 octane car. It might show 670whp on a cold pull, but up to temp and hot it really is only making 610whp. Now take a X port, stock pulley, headers, cai, E50 car. It will make that 680whp on back to back pulls and might only drop back to 660whp when hot. The Ethanol will allow you to keep full timing in it even when its heat soaked.

I agree with KingLT1, Intake, headers, ported blower (X-port), 95mm LT5 TB, FlexFuel sensor (on E50+), is an incredible combo. That is what I did to my car and made 730whp (Mustang dyno), but I also added the new Katech low side twin pump.
Bang for buck, you really can't do much better.

Track it first... You might find you have a super reliable track car as is. Drive it until you hit the limits where you need more power before touching this Mona Liza. You might be surprised.
Headers and tune will get you some nice gains but most of the rest you mentioned will not. Roto-fab actually did the test on mine and I got zero gains. Not a big gulp but that requires a tune so no telling what the CAI actually gets you. |

![]() Yeah, the headers and exhaust I’m honestly MOSTLY doing for the extra noise. A year and a half of owning my ZLE has me wishing for more noise at this point. Power gains past 610 ish WHP (which is what it’s looking like I’ll make with an intake, TB, and headers) will just be the icing on the cake. Going to look into Flex Fuel up to E40 for now; it’s attainable around here, but not easy to get, so I’d rather stick to pump gas for street driving and leave E40 for the track. |

Lots of variables in that…..if it’s a course with plenty of straightaways where you can utilize the additional power it’s beneficial. On a slower and shorter course it may not help you. It’s going to consume more fuel than it will on 93. So if you don’t mind bringing ethanol to the track it’s no big deal, if you mind then it’s probably not for you. I lived near a course and ran 93 most of the time and ethanol mix occasionally, then I moved to where I am no longer near a road course, so I run it on the street now. My closest gas station sells e85 so it’s readily available.
