Default best tune, more boost?

usually when i go out all weekend boosting i like to get the max amount out of my dollar. i call it the boost per dollar ration.

i like running high boost but i have a rear turbo setup and it melted my bumber. when i ran racegas it turned the bumper white. it smelled bad and i got out of the car though it was melted.

what are my options to not run racegas but still run maximum boost? i can't afford to compromise boost but bumpers arent cheap enough to run maximum boost here.

thanks guys

Get some sort of water/meth injection instead of race gas and get some sort of heat wrap for your turbo and insulation for the underside of the car.

That way you can keep most of your boost and not melt the body of the car.

This thread starts out like a Fast and Furious movie quote. Anyhow I don't see how your "boost per dollar ration" logic makes any sense considering RACE gas is atleast $10+/gallon. You would have better luck running E85 for its superior price savings as well as its high octane ability or as an alternative a methanol injection kit in combination with affordable highest octane fuel available.

Post (2) has all the answers to your delimma except an E85 recommend.
