So I'm looking to get the most out of my stg 2+ (m-box) daily driver setup until I go stage 3 in a little bit. I'm not exactly sure which GIAC file I have, but it was updated around Dec 06' with whatever was current (93 oct, though I've only got 91 here. I've been mixing in a couple gallons of either race fuel or e85 to up the octane.) I've already STFA and am thinking a couple things. I don't know which route to go. I was thinking maybe:
1. Possibly getting the new boost controller file and turning the electronic setting all the way up while running the MBC in parallel. Some people have said they've had good results like this.
-Possible issues with this: Some people say that they didn't experience any deviation in requested or actual boost no matter what setting on the new MBC file. I've heard about interesting boost profiles with the new file. Do they make the boost controller file in 91oct? How about high alititude?
2. Keeping my 93 oct file and going MBC in parallel with TCD.
3. MBC in standalone with my current file.
4. Any other way you suggest.
5. Doing 2, 3, or 4 with the "super tweaker" high altitue 91 file (if the super tweaker is different than the new boost control file?)
I may try to do a little lemmiwink tweaking afterwards as well (after a ton of logging of course.)
Any with experiences with any of these setups? What would you recommend? Any input is GREATLY appreciated! Thanks

Can I use a boost controller to raise my boost a small amount over the 14-15psi set by GIAC reflash?
