Maxing out Fuel

Hi,

I just got stage 2 with e30, Keller 3inch primary and secondary with Remus catback and awe intake. Under wot around 5th gear my car hesitates at times. My tuner said i am maxing out fuel and lower e85 from e30. I have since added couple of gallons of 93 but not much difference. My 1/4 miles was 10.35 with hesitation around 131 mph to 135 mph. What can I do to resolve this as he stated I can fix this with meth but I don't want to go that route. Even though I have e30 flash tuner stated I can go down to e20 and try to find a sweet spot. Please advise. Thx

Who's your current tuner if you don't mind me asking? For Bootmod3 OTS on e30 Stage 2 the best and averages I could do is like 10.65 @131 with a 1.70 60fts. I've done a couple 10.7's averages @130 with 93oct Stage 2. Also 1.70 60fts.

On Stage 1, 93 octane I was averaging 10.74's with 126-128 trap with 1.70 60fts. A lot of stock comps were running this time stock .

My average 60-130 was always mid 7's whether on stage 1 or 2. When I tried 60-130 on the street mostly cooler nights I could manage low 7's even broke into the 6's once or twice.

Some tuners said it was driver mod or need better tires. When I see people get 10.3's @134 mph it makes me want to switch to DME already lol, but there's this air about DME blowing up engines, but most of the guys who do blow it them up, I hear they abuse their car and some have even admitted it lol!

What to do? I beat most cars but I still want a daily mid 6 second car from 60-130 with bad tires and bad driver mod. Is that too much to ask lol!

Nice nice! This sounds also like DME times. Are these times 93 or E30?

Did you notice much change in 93 to E30?
