You already have meth, he doesn't, you will not see as much increase as he did.

Mine was 707 on 93 Octane and 775 on e85. Who is doing your tune?

Karger has done all of my tuning since ADM did the original build 6 years ago. I have him tune it to the max for the dyno and detune it just a bit to keep the motor on the safe side.

2015 ZL1
It has heads/cam/lt headers no cats/ported snout (lsa blower not ported)
102mm nw tb/Meth injection/forged pistons and rods/stock fuel pump
Blower is running 16-17lbs boost making 745 rwhp 718 tq

Im trying to buy a dsx kit fuel pump booster/flex fuel sensor/ID1300

This is for the tuners out there how much hp gain am i looking at by adding e85
Real. Rwhp tq? One tuner said 80-100rwhp one said 35 rwhp.

Your opinion????

It depends on how much boost you are running and what octane fuel.

If you are on high boost and low octane you stand to gain huge power.

If you are on reasonable boost 8-10 psi on 93 you would typically gain 10% more power than you make on pump gas.

Moving to Higher octane fuels always allows you to run significantly more boost so you can gain up to 200 RWHP pretty easy.

16 is too much boost for pump gas so I would expect you to easily pick up 100 RWHP +
