Can I tune the engine to use another octane fuel?
In general, modern engine management systems will compensate for fuel octane, and once you have satisfied the optimum octane requirement, you are at the optimum overall performance area of the engine map.

How large of an injector can I run on my engine with SDS?
SDS AIR TEMP VALUES 2006As a rule of thumb, most engines will tolerate an injector flowing about 1.5 times the volume of 1 cylinder.

Don't expect a setup like this to run like a stock engine on the street or give super mileage. See similar questions...
