I tried it and threw a CEL. Unless your mapped for it, you probably won't see any gains.

It was a long time ago, but I'm pretty sure it was a lean code. And yes, you need switchable maps in order to make use of race gas. That is one advantage of UTEC over ECUTek.

To gain Hp numbers from race gas it has to be tuned for race gas..

You cant just throw it end there and expect good results

idk bout having a race gas map and a pump gas map. matt scranton uses the same map for 20psi and 44psi, it adjusts to the boost level. so i guess if you're tuned properly you dont need to change maps.

It'll probably slow you down a little if you're not tuned for it.

You won't see any gains with race gas, probably a loss of power like leslie said unless you have a map for it. You will also start to fuck up your 02 sensor.
