Default How many gallons of fuel for Tuning?

I have a rather large build that is almost completed (brand new 7.1 liter motor, upgraded complete fuel system, and twin turbo set up). Aside from pump 93, and pump E85, I also want kill mode to be tuned running Ignite Racing Fuels 114 (top of the line E90 blended with a race blend for the balance 10%). How many gallons of this ultra good stuff should I bring to the shop on the day of the tune?

I'd really just call the person tuning it and ask how much they want.

A good DYNO tune is usually done with a road test afterwards so I would say 5 gallons at an absolute minimum. Personally I would do 10 gallons. You damn sure dont want to run out of fuel at high rpms LOL
