Mostly it's just what I'm comfortable with doing with E. I'm not really comfortable going over an E30 mix without other fuel delivery upgrades while on a stock ECU. The controller's maps aren't truly setup for ethanol either and I don't have an E-sensor to know precisely what the mix is. All of these together are why I'm choosing to be more conservative. These are probably just personal bugaboos that are causing me to be overly conservative though.

Bugaboo. Lol. No way, nothing wrong with moving cautiously in this situation at all. I appreciate you answering my questions as well. ✌🏾

I see the ECU tune/unlock can remove the high speed governor and you can pay to get remote start. I wonder if there is an option to unlock wireless charging of your phone ??? (lol).

Just spoke with sales and there’s plans for 5-6 high performance upgrades planned that can stack on top of the stage 2, performance hardware, and this tune is compatible with meth kits. The warranty is a no brainer. If you got the money go for it! Can’t wait to see more videos!

One of those upgrades will probably be an option to run ethanol blends

Yup I agree! Steve knows that the S58 is a beast of a motor. They’re dropping a titanium exhaust system soon as well.

Where did you do your dyno test? Having trouble finding an AWD in Delaware Valley.
