honestly racing fuel IS served well as a fuel cleaner, it's basically same thing... all fuel cleaner/stabilizer is a octane booster....

Last year I had my car that was a 95 camaro built with a 388 stroker making 563hp at wheel all motor, had 13.5 compression and on fuel injection. the 110 once a week was the only thing that would keep my injectors from gumming up. As two tanks full of 93 in a roll and I was ripping top end apart again...

with todays crappy gas that is sold in the states a high compression motor needs a lil help to run ok, Europe is where the good gas is made and sold. this Junk we have here is basic crap...

This is why they use 110 for small engine airplanes, and not straight pump gas
(as I always went to local small airport to fill up)


don't believe the set up on the car, feel free to hear for yourself

Not really. 2,2,4-Trimethylpentane aka iso-octane is generally used to increase the octane rating as opposed to tetraethyl lead which worked better. Remember "leaded" fuel. Hexene and benzene are also added to some degree to increase the octane rating as well, but are much smaller constituents. Hexene and benzene are solvents, but not necessarily ideal ones for a fuel system.

Default 87 octane seriously?

whats this about 87 octane here in the uk it is 95 octane minimum! oh and ino the argument was three pages ago but adding hotter plugs makes it faster as it burns hotter so burns faster meaning it makes use of the higher octane, using higher octane with stock or cooler plugs will have no effect apart from fuels like v power and other such fuels have better additives to clean out the engine. i may have forgotten to say that my bad

best we got in U.S. at (most) gas pumps is 93..... They like to rip us off in the states.

Default race fuel

110 or a 114 octane fuel is great it has more lube in it and burns cooler than 93 or 91 octane hold your bike at 10,000 rpms on 110 or 114 around a track and do it for hours hold it at 10,000 rpms on pump gas its gona run hot and lean good luck keeping it from haveing a coming apart party!!!!
