You could also lean the air/fuel ratio out if you wanted every last horsepower but the gains there are minimal. The timing curve and fuel scalar are the main things you need to address.
Thanks Mike, I appreciate it.

Like someone else said, it seems a bit aggressive to start off with, but I can certainly slowly work my way up to something like that as long as the car stays happy. I'll be putting in my FMIC next week, so I'll be able to tinker with it then.

I don't have DPs, so I'll just do something similar with the S1+ aggressive map, with a lower fuel scalar for the 25% E85 I'm running now.

Thanks again.

Thanks. I always err on the side of caution, especially since combustion engines are not my specialty.
