Then remembering back to when we added a 2300 to my 16ss that car made 549 on 93 octane, so my 22 would have made about the same. From 434 rwhp to 707 rwhp with just the 2300 and Toohighpsi PI is pretty incredible on a stock fuel system, stock motor, exhaust, etc on E65 on just 11 psi of boost. How can you go wrong? So, the port injection with tuning and going to E65 added another 158 rwhp for under 3000 bucks. Why would you choose a more expensive kit, plus Mike is working on new additions to the Reflex in the near future. Impressed? I would think so.
Out of curiosity, what are the additions that Mike is working on?

He didn't specify, but always trying to figure out additional things that will be needed in the future. I guess the Reflex is pretty versatile. You know me, if he was specific I wouldn't know what he was talking about. That's because he talks above my head, it's called way smarter than me. He really never tells me till it's ready to hit the bricks.

Jason gave me the green light to cut loose. Things looking good still need to get over E70+ to get some final numbers to see if he has to add to the port side. I'll do a 6hr round trip tomorrow to VA to get the 5 gallon can of x85 at my dads. Right now I'm sitting at E69 so adding some of that should def get me there. Full E85 wasn't the goal but if it's had I'm not giving it back.

Nice! Let us know how it goes.

I don't think you'll see any improvement going from E69 to E70 or over. You need to tune it on whatever you can get on a normal day to day basis.

We are testing that the balance between Port and DI is balanced enough to run higher E contents. I tuned his setup to have max power by E70. We may back it down to what is local station can provide since E60+ and meth is plenty to make max power.

Just sent you the latest logs got it to E71 and she felt really good. Better than the previous pulls.

Well thanks to all that provided advice with the install of the port kit and a special shot out to Jason for providing his skills with the tuning. I've learned a lot through this process and I'm really enjoying the car now. Here are a few pics of what the numbers look like now. I must say the car runs very strong now. Like Jason said I try to do anymore I'm risking the engine so this is officially it for this build. Its been a fun journey but now its time to just enjoy the car and ride it till the wheels fall off.

Should live a good long life with 9.4 psi of boost and E70 fueling. Looks good!
