Going to start a build thread like everyone else. I have a 2005 S2k with 33k. Silverstone with red/black interior, all stock. This is my first time turbo, so if you notice something missing, let me know.

I'm wanting to hit 500+ with 93 octane on a boost by gear high tune and have something around 350 for my everyday driving.

Most of the parts are shipping now or within the next week, so I'm kind of at a stand still.

Question:
I know I can have a low/high boost setting. Can I have a 3rd tune for race fuel (there is a Sunoco 5 min from my house that sells 100 octane, and a VP fuel dealer 10min down the road) that would be saved under nitrous control? If so, can I run 100 octane (or VP101) on my set up without changing my components? Eventually I want a dual hanger fuel pump, change the rail, ID2000 and get a 68-70mm throttle body and intake manifold to match, boost a spark and coils, but that will be down the road (after drivetrain has been upgraded).

If anyone has any words of wisdom or advice to impart, I am all ears.

looks like a great start to me, you got pretty much everything written down u need, a catch can wouldnt be a bad idea, i would just run 2 tunes, pump gas tune and race gas tune

Suzuka_Joe

should make 500+ pretty easily. twinscroll ftw

illestrolla

500+ on pump may be a stretch but you'll certainly get close enough.

On good fuel you shouldn't have a problem making well over 500

Quality parts. As the others have mentioned, you'll have no issue reaching your goals.

The idea behind 3 tunes was to have an easy "everyday" driving tune, a higher boost by gear type set up for when I cruise with friends who have boost too or if someone wants to play but I am on pump gas and then a full out race tune for various track days and such. Are 3 tunes possible with AEM?

Also, regarding not meeting my goals on pump gas, I have been doing some looking and VP motorsports 109 (unleaded) isn't much more expensive than 100 unleaded. Anyone have any experience using this fuel? I would love to use e85 (I have seen some great results on here with people using it) but I don't want to completely redo the fuel system on my car just yet. Maybe a winter project in the future.

To run e85 you only need a new fuel pump, injectors and something to tune it with correct?

Yes. You can save as many calibrations as you'd like; simply upload them as necessary.

Thank you. I am currently reading through your build thread as we speak. Good stuff in there. Military?

Thanks. Gov not military
