Also, what you experienced with your 350z and 93 octane was placebo, short of you having done something to the engine to "require" it - such as an ECU tune. Bolt-ons will not change octane requirements, but forced induction may. My 370z, with it's 7AT, will roast 1st entirely, chirp 2nd pretty good, and sometimes chirp 3rd. I'ev also gotten it to trigger the slip light in 4th. All of that while going in a straight line. Knowing how quickly this car will whip around when it breaks traction while turning (VDC is a good thing...lol) - I don't try the whole "while turning" bit. If mine had an open diff, I might still be able to get away with powersliding and so on...but not with my Z's VSLD... |
