At the recommendation of a friend I fillled up the tank in the Turbo with racing gas (100 octane).

at $7.99 a gallon this isn't something I can do every time lol!

Wow but what a difference in performance. After about 5 miles the car was noticably quicker at boost. In "over-boost" way quicker! I guess that's the way they all run in Europe. My car is flashed and GIAC says that you get another 25hp with racing gas. Sure feels like it..

If you haven't tried this I highly recommend it... I'm sure it's more noticable in a Turbo car that normally aspirated car..

I think I'll do a half tank once a month.

God I love my car.:clapping:

It sure is a nice kick in the pants. We carry VP MS109 unleaded fuel for the all our GIAC tuned vehicles.
