Reds 108 chip and Sunoco 94?

[Renthorin]

I have a stock turbo, IC, and injectors (for now) in my 87GN. Can I run a red's 108 chip with 94 octane and an SMC kit? Or is that too much?

Just want to be a bit quicker on the street.

Also, I know there is not simple answer to this question but how long does a bottle of alky in an SMC tank reeeaaalllllyyyy last?

I have a fear that I will be refilling the bottle every day when I cruise for 50 miles around town, punchint it every now and again.

TIA

Ask Alex, blackshoebox. I think he is running that exact combo

I've run a Red's 108, 93 octane, and 100% denatured with 0 knock at the track on 24 lbs of boost. I have the power plate which I think helped a bunch. The race chip really wakes the car up my MPH went from 102 to 108 going from a street chip to race. That was at 5800 feet if I could only get this thing to launch now.

I'm new to this too, is that the race chip you guys would recommend? Does that power plate go in-between the top hat and intake? Where did you get it? Sorry for all the questions and thanks.

You can run the RA108 chip with pump and alky, and you can even run more boost with the 108 chip then you could with a street chip(ie RA93 chip) since the fuel curves after 3000 rpms are far more aggressive with the RA108 chip. I have 009's and a dual inlines for fuel pumps, and have ran 24 -25 psi with pump fuel and alky. I also have the power plate which does help a little bit, but i do not think it is neccesary. I would not recommend driving the car daily on a race chip since the excess fuel that the aggressive fuel curves give you after 3000 will sit and were on the rings and essentially flood the car if you are not in it all the time. If i go cruising on the weekends to a show or to race at the track then i throw the race chip in and redial the car in with the new fuel curves and crank up the boost. Dyno #'s in the sig were achieve with 108 chip, pump fuel, and 23 psi on alky.
