Thanks to Carz and Lucas!

I want to thank Lucas and the peeps at Carz once again! I took my car up to Lakewood yesterday to have Lucas do a "little" re-tune!! Ha ha, it was just a little longer and a little more than that. I had my car tuned in Jan and made some decent power on E85. At 26.5 psi I made 355awhp and 383ft tq which were pretty good numbers!! When I went back up, the goal was to get the boost around 28-29psi and re-tune. Well, we couldn't because I was too cheap to buy a truboost EBC, so we tried turning up my MBC and could not get anymore than the 26psi I was already running. We tried a TurboXs MBC and still the same, although the car ran better with it on. I think my Perrin just took a crap.

Anyway we were able to get a great tune nevertheless, the car made 372awhp and 405ft tq!!!!!!!! That was with 25.2psi and it was very hot outside! There is still a lot more there and I will be back up in a couple of weeks to throw on the Truboost and make hopefully over 400awhp and even more tq.

BTW- We did find out something interesting! Whe I first got tuned on E85 I filled up at a Shell off of Alemeda and it was the winter blend. Since I live in the Spriings, I have been filling up at the 2 Western Conv stations and they have never offered the winter blend. It is the 85% blend and it made a BIG difference in my car!! So if you guys have been tuned for the winter blend and fill up at Western there is a good chance you will need a re-tune!!!
