Took my ‘17 SCAB out to the drag strip (South FL) last night and made 6 runs. The first 3 runs were stock tune and the last 3 runs were with MPT 93 PR-X. All runs were made in Sport Mode, 4A, traction control off and brake boosted. Air temps for the first 4 runs were 80, 78 for the 5th run and 74 for the last run. Runs 1-3 were all consecutive without letting anything cool off at all or even turning truck off. The last 2 runs everything cooled off due to times between runs (more people showed up). ONLY mod is SP 542 plugs gapped at 30.

Run 1 (stock tune):
60’ - 2.196
ET - 14.637 @ 90.97

Run 2 (stock tune):
60’ - 2.124
ET - 14.465 @ 92.92

Run 3 (stock tune):
60’ - 2.092
ET - 14.358 @ 93.33

Run 4 (MPT 93 PR-X):
60’ - 2.009
ET - 13.967 @ 94.23

Run 5 (MPT 93 PR- X):
60’ - 2.088
ET - 13.999 @ 96.39

Run 6 (MPT 93 PR-X):
60’ - 1.986
ET - 13.781 @ 96.39

Picking up 5mph is pretty huge. Nice to see the truck does a sub 2 60 foot. Looks like bigger turbos will be needed for 12s. Pretty cool on bfgs.

I think this truck can get into the 12's without having to add larger turbos, obviously this will help but I think with the basic bolt-on's, adjustment of the tire pressures and maybe the addition of **** will help get us into the 12's.

I ran a 13.08@102 MPH on a corn tune with the only modification being turbo outlet adapters. If the headwind wasn't 12mph I would have ran in the 12's.

I love me some corn. Too bad this whole community is scared of it. This is literally the only vehicle ive owned in the last decade not on corn right now.

are you running an Ethanol Content Analyzer? I just moved to a place where there is no ethanol and I'm about to start filling barrels again and transporting them to where i ive to get E85 again. My racecar gains 200hp just going from 93 to E85.

I will eventually. Right now I wing it. My tune isn't on the border of crazy either. And with enough corn, you can have leeway one way or the other. I just have a glass tube tester I use occasionally. And the stations around me are very consistently right at or slightly above e85. Some are closer to 90.

an ex coworker is a ecm calibrator and just bough a raptor. through a couple gallons of e85 in it to **** around and it added a bunch of timing on its own before he even tuned it.
