Hello all,
General question.

Should I tune for VP c16 (2150's dont like q)
and just lower boost for street use?
Or tune for gas (sunoco 94), meth and race gas.?

Dont want to be making 3 different trips to tuner as it will get crzy $$.

What do you guys mostly do?

Sad to say I cannot get my hands on any corn syrup so.... stuck with about choices.
 
if you plan to run 2 separate fuel systems, make 2 tunes and have then on a dual image board. Or saved so u can easily swap them whenever needed. Otherwise, pick 1 fuel and run with that.

Or run E85 and get cooler burns without the need for meth or race fuel. If you have to, you can always add another fuel rail and more fuel. I have considered running pump gas for the streets on my next motor build, then have a secondary rail for direct port nitrous and E85 on the underside of the intake runners. No one would ever know its there, and by the time they did, it would be to late.

But I grudge race more than anything. Which is like street racing, only at the track. I have to much to lose to run on the streets anymore.
 
Depend what kind of fuel you'll be using more of. Seems to be the logical way to go.

Maybe I should update my profile. I scrapped the 3065 and have T4Z T88 T4 with SF top mount, 2150's, 280 kelfords, dual 44mm wg's, s90 tb, V3 cast intake..and more

Depend what kind of fuel you'll be using more of. Seems to be the logical way to go.

Basically want to know if anyone here has taken car to be "tuned" and had it done for "race" gas and then simply turned down the boost for street?

If you can get e85 in your area, do it.

No e85 anywhere close by. Station is over an hour away and I am not able to fill in any containers, drums or cherry cans.
