Let's talk octane...
Admittedly, I am not a gearhead or anything really even close. I know a little about engines, how they work... just basic stuff.
Obviously when a person goes to the track, some will run race gas, I don't know how many here do, but that usually requires the tune to be for the higher octane, correct? What is the increase in power with the increase of octane? Some will run E85, others on here say on an NA engine it doesn't do much for the car in terms of power output. With the Evo's and being on the Evo forums for so long. They just switch to E85 and gain like 30 or 40 whp. How unfair  So what are the ins and outs with all of this? Can we make more power this way or not? |
