Yeah....I saw that post a few days before hitting the dyno and it gave me hope!

Mines still internally gated cause I am cheap

I dont plan to tune mine for race gas (i.e. high timing) as I have learned my lessons (i.e. low timing engines last alot longer than high timing ones.) Remember that coolant sheet that hit your dyno wall?

Thus, I stick to pump gas from now on

On this dyno, I was running about 12 degrees spark advance.

Hoel Shot Engineering in St. Petes sells it.

Best part is....its $3 per gallon.

For 13 dyno runs and about 50 miles of street driving on Saturday, I used about 1 quart So......I used about 75 cents worth of fuel. Cat beat the price to performance ratio there.
