Typical numbers for the S58

I don't see why you wouldn't want to use E. It's so much more cost effective than buying race fuel. Which also is harder to get.

Edit: nevermind, it shows numbers for 93 in the video.
They made 535 on 93.
104 race fuel is 672

Depends but it's a pain because the ecu is locked hard so it's like $2k to get unlocked then another $1k for a tune and $1k for downpipe. So yeah around $5-7k with a custom tune and Ethanol hardware

Since when did Stage 2 become Stage 1… car has bolt-ons, aggressive tuning, race fuel, but “it’s stage 1”. They’ll quickly find out their “Stage 2” is just a refined tune with another 10hp… or maybe stage 2 is an LS swap or a big turbo.

Good stuff nonetheless, impressive what fuel can do when timing is advanced.
I think it's common around Euro cars that a downpipe makes it stage 2. Beyond that it's kind of whatever lol. Like stage 1 is any boltons besides downpipe and turbo with a tune. Some say stage 1+ is when you add ethanol. Stage 2 then is adding the downpipe and then 3 is hybrid or larger and some say 4 is full frame turbo.

It's actually stage 2. They have a downpipe.


This is an S58. Been tried and true to make monster power with a tune and downpipe with E40.
500+ with pump gas and 6-700+ with e40.
