ballpark  on around 30% blend with 91 or 93 octane to be safe on 13+ models only .

can i run the 93 map with 91 mix

Are you tuned?

If so, by who?

If so, don't go screwing around without tuner support.

The tune has already put extra requirements on the fuel system and compounding it with E-85 wouldn't be wise.

If you're not tuned? Rephrase your question because I'm not sure what you are asking.

I'm guessing you are running a tune and you should probably address that question to your tuner .

Livernois does not recommend using E85.

really ok i just dont get 93 here so feel like im going to miss out on the 93 4+ map

[DJE624]

You'll be fine on the 91 tune.  SOCALSHO uses it out in CA and his times were very close to mine when we were both running the Stage 4+.

As much as I would like to run a 93 octane tune, as Dave says, my times are close to his. That's what happens when Californians are too cheap to want to buy the good stuff. Demand and then supply goes down.

I just checked.  My 1/8 time was 8.35 vs 8.38  Not even a third of a tenth apart.
