Running the New Vi-PEC EMS for my build.

I could bring it here from the US in drums but that seems like a PITA. I also live 100+ miles out of the two major citys (Edmonton & Calgary) that I am closest too so if I ran E85 I wouldn't be able to round trip to either with E85 
.If i am going to the citys or during the week I run 94octane and weekends I run 104oct to go have fun. 104 is $5/L or aprox $22/gal here
so it is a little to expensive to run all of the time and 94oct is about $1.00/L or $4.50/gal I was going to just buy a drum of 104 for $800 bucks and I just never got around to it. With 94 it is fine at around 15psi but if I run through the gears WOT at 21psi when I hit the top of third it will ping 
if I am rolling in 3rd I can get one pull in third with no pinging but after that it pings once the heat builds up. So when I run 94 I short shift at 5500rpm and i don't get any pinging it seems to be fine so far

thanks, like I said I have been fully expecting the post to read....I tried 21psi on my stock engine and spit rods out the side of the block on the dyno

holy crap that's some expensive fuel. I would invest in a fuel tank and drive a truck to get some e85 at a decent price somewhere. I don't know how much you said it was to get e85.
that or just get a meth injection. prob a lot cheaper that route. at least you have some 94 octane. We used to have 94.5 octane at sunoco but they stopped carrying it when gas prices went up. Sucks. We have 110 at the pump still for 5.69$ a gallon so it's not too bad if i want to crank it up.

. I have never looked into the cost of getting drums shipped up here because if I ran it I would not be able to go to the major citys because it would take more than a tank to round trip unless I carry a bunch of gas cans in my trunk 
up here E85 is only feasible for race cars.I already have meth injection and with meth injection and 94 it will ping if I beat on it. Our 104 is not at the pump it is sold at performance shops out of drums. Our cost of fuel is ridiculous the 94 we have is even hard to find it is only at Mowhawk or Husky stations other than that our premium fuel is 91oct and it is $5.XX/gal I wish we could 110 for that price
