Anyone de tuning until gas prices ease a bit?

Its not called CROOK County for nothing.

93 is up to $4.07 here. No, I'm not detuning!

No detune for me.My daughter in memphis has been bugging me for months to sell her my r/t.So i did and went right out and found a very clean one owner 06 srt and brought it home.Took the cash i made on the deal and threw it right in the bank.I can buy alot of gas now

I noticed the BP by the house is $.30 cheaper today then when we went to the airport on Tuesday.

Just jumping in on this casue i need 25 posts to PM.

On my SRT10 i have the SC and one of the tunes i got was to run on 87 which helps out somewhat since MPG is 8/14.
Does the predator have that Never got one for the 300.

I'm converting my car to E-85. It's 25% cheaper on average than reg. I burn C-16 now and that shit has got to go. I can make alot more timing and hp with the alc. Plus I can lose my cats because I can pass any emissions test. I don't have to test here in Marengo anyway, but if they pulled me over and tested, I could pass.Pretty cheap to convert, also. The savings in buying fuel alone will pay for it quickly. Not that I'm doing it for that reason.

you will save money over race gas but not over 87-93 octane. e-85 gets horrible gas mileage compared to normal gas. it would have to be 2/3rds the price of normal gas to be worth it and its not. for you it is worth it.

I assume Tom doesnt really care, he doesnt drive it on the street anymore.

Right, I'm doing it for performance gains.

Not a chance I have spent time and money to make my ride faster so no turning back!! I am in fact looking for even more power like the other guy said to save $4-$6 per fillup isn't worth it!Also when hot out your power will be even lower while the computer adjusts for spark knock...
