Will race fuel help me on a street tune. My car has a standard tune for the streets. I'm running whats in my sig, and I wanted to know if race fuel will help with the same tune. I know it would benefit me to add some timming and boost, but I wanted to know if it would make a diffrence with the my street tune.

like he said it wont help MUCH -unless you adjust timing all around for the new gas, & then that would mean you would have to run race gas ALL the time...unless you have tuning software yourself, i wouldnt do it...cuz if you have a tuner that does things for you, you would probably have to go back and forth to the dyno everytime u decide to change your octane

If you have the Tial external gate - the waste gate that comes with the your STS, without the "race" valves, you will RUIN your valves, running race gas. Try some alcohol injection first or a better tune.
