I just did this 2 days ago and I have to say I'll have a hard time going back to 91.

Nitrous is safe you just really need to ensure you employ good failsafes and don't get greedy on the tune.

I will very likely be going nitrous with E85 after I max out the bolt on path. Yes the fuel system will need some attention but if I am successful it will make for a great weather immune setup

Quick answer is yes. You'll need a tune and it will show up on the flash counter when scanned.

I would deff agree if you have e-85 available its Best bang. You will get 30-40 HP, Just add full exhaust w/long tubes, and intake. it will be a big difference! I think with us being able to benefit from e-85 we will deff see N/A cars hitting 500 hp or more possibly.

Long tubes and full exhaust are nowhere near being best bang for buck - long tubes are like $2000 for less than 20hp and a full exhaust is around the same price for another maybe 5hp.

Even a Cai is borderline, if a $60 drop in filter gets 5hp and a $400 cai gets less than 10.

Already done lol

What about those of us who don't have e85 around us. Closest station to me is 60 miles away. Ported IM/TB + tune?

I got kooks coated longtubes with off road connection pipes for 980 shipped. Install myself. And I'm doing the e85 kit

E85 tune best gain for money. Bout a grand after tuning bigger gains than LTs

For track days you may want to consider getting a 55 gallon drum and filling it up.

If you are looking for 24/7 gains the I would have to say ported IM/TB and Rotofab with a tune are the next best options. Rotofab becomes more significant as the mod list increases.

Thank you,
Tim

Yep. Don't want to blow the welds off your manifold

You can remote tune through a professinal tuner, dont do it yourself, i tried to learned and gave up after 10 minutes.

Camarosaab,

Please let me know if you are interested in doing a remote tune. It is a process that works very well for bolt on level modifications and will result in a more comprehensive tune than just doing WOT pulls on a dyno. It will require you to own (or borrow) HP Tuners.

Thank you,
Tim
