You can easily make 410 on an FP Red, but probably not on 22 psi, unless its a high reading dyno. On a mustang dyno with 25psi, my Evo made 390. It was a very hot day and would have made more with...

E85/93 blend (50/50 mix)
JB4 w/ 15 ohm mod
My issue is, I was doing a couple 3-4 pulls on the highway today, and the car would... -

I will be interested when someone tells me we can run full E85. Until then, that is a waste of money for something that other tuning options are already basically doing, with no additional hardware.
