Maybe I'll talk to the guys doing the work on the car. I'm assuming along with the sensor id also need larger injectors and a new fuel pump?

Larger injectors are a probability, but I don't know if you'd be maxing the pump just yet. They will know more when they have the car hooked up and checking the sensors.

This is something that interests me, where i live theres 88 octanes, really expensive 100 oct and not that expensive E85, so economically it makes more sense to add ethanol to the mix to get it to 91 octanes.

can you give any pointers on low end torque tuning?
