100 Octane
Anyone know where i could find some 100 octane fuel. Im not sure what companies sell it. Im sure its proly sold near a track but i dont live close to any. Also what octane booster is the best. I want it to smell like a muscle car :clap:

1.) There is no reason to run that much octane unless you need it.
2.) Call around some gas stations have it. Or some speed shops have it by the gallon but it aint cheap. 3.)STP Jet Fuel I wont use anything else as a Octane additive |
if you want it to smell like a muscle car, get an off road xpipe. It'll smell like your car farted
|
Well the reason i want it is I was talkin to a mechanic and asked him what made newer cars like mine smell like the older ones do. He said that the fuel made a major differance. As long as it dosent hurt my motor i really dont care about the price because i only go through a tank about every 3 weeks. I have the predator tune anyway so im thinkin it can only help.
|
Whatever octane your tune is set for use that octane. Too much octane can slow you down. And i'm with DannyB on this one get a O/R pipe that will help make your car smell somemore. Otherwise your going to waste money on race gas.
|
ok, that makes sense. The only problem is i cant get an off road x because i live in NY. I am getting Lontubes and a catted x soon but unfortunatley i cant get off road or i would. NY SUCKS
|
Running high octane fuel will make your car run lean/rich ( i forget which one)...don't mess with it unless you need it..
|
NY doesnt matter
Longtubes and off road pipes are illegal everywhere - so being in NY isnt an excuse... its just do you have the balls to do it.....
P.S. I do! |

Thats what SLP is for...
Buy a catted X and then buy race pipes. Doesnt take too long to swap them out for emissions :). |
Or just move to Florida........lol..I love it down here
|
stupid question, but if you got a seperate tune with 100 octane that would help correct? Or would that still be bad

Yes of course.... But I got free dyno tunes for life! :devil2: |

its almost impossible to find a diablo products tuner.

go to small airports they got the 110 Low lead and i think 100 unleaded.
|
So what x pipe do i buy exactly? Do i buy the catted, i didnt know that you could just take off the cats and put in an insert. Is that how its done?
|
The gas station by my house sells 104 octane...it's a nice $4.99 a gallon (but that was before the last gas hike, don't know how much it is now)!!!!!
|
get teh SLP x-pipe its probalby the best arond... its cool cause you can remove the cats and put in straight pipes like was said earlier but if you decide to go with long tubes in teh future you odn't have to buy a different x-pipe then cause the SLP will fit long tubes also... i have it coming for my car adn i know someone who has one and they are absoutly awesome

I ran Sunoco 110 in my '02 mustang like every other weekend and the car ran it's *** off n/a and twice as good on nitrous, but we dyno tuned mine with Diablo for it tho. We did have to turn off the rear o2 sensors due to them mis-reading with the o/r X also.
|
I might get some 110 octane and run a 150 shot one weekend after I have it tuned.:pepper:
