Are you going to be running an Ethanol or meth tune? You don't mention that.

If not, how much extra HP can they squeeze out of pump gas, to make doing it worthwhile?

How much increase can I expect with 93 pump gas over Stage 2+ aggressive? Mods are VSRF downpipes and 5" FMIC. Not interested in eWhatever or 100 octane. Thx

I have access to e85, wasn't planning on using that or meth at present time. My main goal with the e-tune is to refine the OTS map, I'm sure there is plenty of room for improvement from the OTS maps. If anything dialing the map in to the specifics of my car will keep it "happier" and if Jake and PTF can squeeze out some extra hp/tq I'll be more than satisfied.

I'm planning on getting VRSF DPs in the next month then driving down to their Rockville shop for a dyno tuning session. Can't wait to hear about your experience!

@JAKE - I know my comment wasn't directed at you, but do you mind giving your input (sorry, I'm sure you've explained this before)?

Refining the maps will be one of your goals, but on a stage 2+ car let's say (even if that's not the OP's mods ), on 94 Octane gas, what sort of increase in HP and TQ might you be able to squeeze out vs. OTS maps? I'm interested personally as I've got some timing drops which I thought I might be able to address with a PTF tune, and was curious about the gains too. Thanks.

I'll let Jake speak for himself, but from my experience so far, OTS maps vs. PTF is no comparison. The OTS maps are built with everyone in mind, meaning they can't be too aggressive and go blowing up people's engines.
