I had a RaceChip and switched it out for a JB4 due to more custom tuning and boost safeties. E30-40 with JB4 will get you into mid-11s.

Hey Mike so for 2ND gen B58 you don’t need to upgrade anything to run E40-50 MIX ? Besides a tune obviously like the stock HPFP can handle it ?

Stock B58TU can handle 100% straight E85 on an otherwise stock (with flash) car - mind you E30-E40ish will make more power than straight E85 on that otherwise stock application but the stock B58TU can handle it no problem.

I used straight E85 on my 2020 with my Mission tune a while back and it was fun but was more for economy at the pump in that I gave up performance vs E30

the best mix without having to change anything is E40-E50
