Two gear race and I hit 3rd hard enough to hit the low trac light :yup: No driver mod needed = 2nd/3rd gear! That truck was a monster for a stock truck :true: Obviously the more gears I went through, the worse I would have pulled but he had taken many a vehicle while he owned it :devil: Now he has a dynoed 640hp 1XXX tq duramax and a 6XXhp 7XXtq 69 Camaro :yay:
According to a Road and Track mag article fuel milage and octane rating have nothing to do with each other. If your vehicle is suppose to take 91 octane fuel and you put a lower grade of fuel it wont affect fuel mileage only horsepower.
lowest i can run is 91 with the tune i have...
But would it be OK to run 87 octane if you installed...
Weapon X Sparkplugs?!?!?!
Hey man, those were banned by the government because of how big an advantage they gave, can't talk about them on this forum.Quote:

I run 11:1.
91 octane.
31 degrees of timing. (altitude allows for a few extra)
This is how it works.
Only use what you need too. If your car runs fine and DOES NOT ping on 85 octane...use that. If it does, go to mid-grade.
But if the knock sensors detect pinging they add knock retard and you shouldn't be able to notice pinging. So you'll cut power and mileage

Yep, 91 is what we get here. That's what I use.

Damn Spaz and IROC....those posts cracked me up :lmao:
for 93 or 100? the 100 ive spotted is right by the track and the other is charleston and lamb. 93 i couldnt tell you but i know i would have wasted a lot of money just going back and forth across town with my luck.Quote:
