100 is street legal here in Arizona, you can buy it at the pump. Nice time no matter what. That's nice and fast straight outta the box man.

To add to my previous post. Even if he was running normal boost, I would think he would do better on 100 octane, whether he was knocking or not. Why do you think cars that are stuck with 91 octane make less power than 93/94 octane? Even if the cars don't knock on 91? Take cars in California. They do fine with 91, but I am sure if they run 93/94, they would do much better.

Cool. That is actually a good thing. Since all that hot air in Arizona makes the cars run weaker, they could use the 100 octane.

O my god! The reason cars make less power on 91 octane is because they can't go so agressive on the tune!! Eg. AFR, Boost, Timing- they all have to do with the octane of the fuel. The evo is designed to run tip top on 91 octane! Race gas will do NOTHING unless you make adjustments for it PERIOD.

Is a 12.89 out of the question. I mean we are talking about less then .2 of a sec here. YOU DONT THINK THIS COULD BE MADE UP AT ANY TIME DURING A DRAG PASS. Expecially since the weather is starting to get cold?????????? GET A LIFE PEOPLE. Sorry for the antics.....but i really cant stand alot the BS thats on this site. This site is like the blind leading the blind. 99% of people on here dont have a clue what a bov is from a wastegate. HOW do you think the owner of DEVO Tuning (Adam) has blasted some the fastest times in a awd car. BECAUSE he can drive. He has no regard...or worries about breaking a t-case.. or trans. Which is shocking to me as well. But i mean he drives his car hard. And thats exactally what i did a couple days ago. YA DONT BELIEVE ME. Tuff

Dude, I wouldnt even sweat it. Let people talk ****, theres alot of it on this board. If those are your times then those are your times, you dont have to prove anything here this is the internet.

Why don't you guys go back to the track and run it with 91, 93, 94 or whatever octane that's available to regular Joe at the regular Joe pump to shut people up? I probably wouldn't consider 100 octane stock. You will see a little more power in the upper rpm's with 100 octane fuel compared to say 91 octane fuel.

you are a f'n idiot. how many times do people have to explain what 100 octane does over 93? IT DOES NOT DO JACK. it frees up power, so you can turn up the boost or advance the timing or whatver....if the car is on a safe 91 octane tune it is NOT going to run better from just dumping in 100 octane. simple.

why you guys *****ing? wanting people to go to the track with 93 octane so they can come post on the internet about it? some of you people are f'n rediculous.
