So as many of you know we are going for more power. Testing new manifolds and than taking her to the track.

Now my question is our we going to become octane limited? I know VP Import is good for 120 octane. Im going to spray 2000cc of meth for some added insurance.
But from our testing 16 deg of timing at 51 psi is max on VP Import before we see some noise. When we turn the meth on the noise goes away and we pick up 30 whp. This new turbo is rated at 1200 hp and i know we are getting really close to all methanol levels for octane. If i wanted to spray nitrous were is my limit on octane with VP Import gas?


If anyone has been down this road before and help would be much appreciated!

 

lol damn you cant get enough! Cant wait to see your results with the new setup though

 

I thought the antidetonant lead (TEL), that coats the surfaces in the combustion chamber, reacts to alcohol opposite as it does to gasoline, by knocking. Even for some time after the leaded fuel is no longer used.

 

Hasn't been the case for us ill do some checking on this

 

Paul,

Sounds like you need them to create some special "Paul Nelson Concoction" rated to like 130+ Octane

 

 

What did the guys at VP say?

Screw that .....time for some Nitro Meth
