FBO Stock Turbos + WMI MHD tune options?
Hey all, I'm FBO right now and want to add WMI. I'm using an MHD OTS map right now and wanted to use a F80Paul custom tune but noticed that he requires BM3. I don't feel like spending another $500+ for a BM3 license when I already have MHD. Does anyone have any good recommendations for tuners that utilize MHD that can help me out with a good WMI tune? I was thinking either Pureboost or Cary Jordan for a custom tune but what are your thoughts?
Thanks!

Why do you want WMI and what do you expect as an outcome?

TopJimmy hey thanks for replying, I just want to achieve more HP without upgrading turbos and my two options were WMI or E85. I decided to go with E85 because alls I needed was an MHD ECA kit which I've ordered. WMI would require me to get different charge pipes or jpipe to allow for the injection nozzle so E85 it is!

E-mix (50-85) is way better than WMI becsuse there’s less risk of uneven fuel distribution and E-mix has power all the time (instead of only in-boost like WMI).

Came to essentially say the same thing. Ethanol is the way to go IMO. Both of my cars are running E85 at this point and make amazingly safe power for what they are.

I honestly never even thought of that(extra power only in boost), thanks for the insight!
