Raced Evo X, Now need your help for round 2

Im posting this thread through my phone so im just going to post the links to the video

Ok here's the story, Anyways got my car back from the dealer on two fridays ago and it was kind of raining so decided to go to a close local meet so I haven't seen the parking lot packed like that for a while. So there was this blue exo x said he had bolt on and stage 3 tune so then I was I like my friend with a black cobalt said he beat you then he kind of started laughing all hard saying that he has never lost to a cobalt I guess my friends got there feeling hurt lol because its like 7 of us in tuned turbo cobalts and so i told him to race me and this are the result
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_LK3j4O7fs
Ok guys this were I need your help he said he wanted a rematch in two week tomorrow is the day of the rematch. Im going to buy race gas to turning up some timing my question to yall is what kind of race fuel should I get a local gas station has 100, 105, 110, 111, 116, or is it even possible to mix any of these with 93 for I can get more out of it, because im not rich got a lot of other bills to pay I was only going to spend 50 on race fuel which is about 4.5 gallons but if it was possible to mix with 93 I could have more gallons. I just don't want to lose to the evo what im thinking that the evo is gunna do is either spray nos or meth and get a aggessive tune. im going raise my boost to 21 psi I was at 19 when I raced him. So help me out guys sorry for the long thread

tire pressure? no lift shift? as far as mixing gas you should be alright, as long as i understand the concept of octane ratings. If your really worried, burn as much 93 as you can prior to putting in the race gas. If you have the new beta of HPT, you can remove the overboost feature and really crank the boost.... at your own expense though, i would just up it for this race and never do it again. Some guys are pushing 25+ PSI on stock turbo and i haven't heard of one blowing yet

IMO there will be a big diff between 19vs21 psi and i would do 22.5-24 lbs the car really picks up then

Have you done it with hp tuners
I have took off the overboost but still won't go over 22.5 I was going to try a mbc to hold 24psi what you think

Race gas with out tuning it is pointless im getting race fuel to raise my timing and not get any knock.and 75shot just sold my kit I bought a wet kit and everyone told me it was better to buy a dry because we are DI.

I'm holding 25.5 psi in the mid range and then tapering off til redline (19psi at 6800). Inserted a welding tip into the solenoid hose.

good kill. just run him as is. you pulled so damn hard that if you just raise your boost to like 22 psi and run 93. you'll be fine. just done run on 22 psi for long.

you can run 22psi through the band. it's very safe.

Carlos, check out the HPTuners forum for more info on the welding tip. It works similarily to a MBC.
