I'm pretty sure Caltex are contracted to roll out at least 100 pumps this year, should put a pump within reach of most of us soon. Why don't you run 2 maps like me, that way you can swap back to 98 anytime...

As Trent mentioned, we now have race fuel similar to c16 straight from the pump for around 1.10 per litre. The more demand for the fuel, the more pumps they will install.

I'm also wondering what the new carbon tax will do to prices...

Back on topic, I would love to install Garrett housings on the gt3071 with an external gate, I know HKS have managed to do it so although it will triple my fabrication time, it would be the better option. I'm still undecided.

I can run dual maps and load them up as needed but it means bigger injectors in both cars (possibly can get away with it in the R33) and a new fuel pump in the stagea.

Until the fuel is readily available it isn't practical. Richmond in NSW is about 35 minutes from home.

I have 4 servo's within 20k's and more around when I drive longer distances. It is obviously much more practical for me. Caltex just fitted a pump into the outlet just up the road from my Dyno, they must have planned it. :)

There isnt one even remotely close to me at this point in time. Maybe once Caltex rolls out some more this year things will look up - theres a number of Caltex servos within 10-15kms of my house; until then its BP98 for me!

There are externally gated housings for the GT3071.

Obviously, I just meant fitting it all in there with the external gate.

Perhaps a gtx3071 would be better so im not maxing it out, 560hp cartridge. Cihan wants at least that airflow with a 0.82 rear housing, im looking at the Tial for its compact size. Looks like mine is sold so time to get started...

Oops, just re-read your post Scott. I geddit now.

Looks like fun trying to shoehorn something in there.

I have acres of room in the R33 with a HKS manifold and external gate apart from having to massage the engine mount to clear the comp cover.
