I thought BMS has a pump flash? I don't know how much you gain with it, though. It's probably minimal.

Add a Walbro 255 inline pump and flash your ECU then run E60. Huge gain in power

do the bms pump flash if e85 isn't accessible.. or hit up wedge for his pump flash.. no mind major gains, but butt dyno will respond favorably.. wedges will likely run more boost/timing through the band so you'll be able to see some nice top end gains on that part of the curve.

Race gas or e85

For daily driving though, maybe some RB's, or Vargas if you can't get those fuels readily

That's a pity cause DP alone contributed to 20 whp on my car when I dynoed it back then. Next big jump in power was E85 with back end flash. Never turned back since!

Run meth injection and contact Wedge Performance to give you a custom tune for the added meth.
