Long term effect of race fuel
 
Ive been wondering this for a while now. Ive been driving my car for 2 years now(9k) miles using 109oct UNLEADED fuel. although the car is tuned for 100 plus, will there be any long term effect besides o2 sensors going bad?

Does the higher oct create more carbon build up on the pistons,fuel injectors,ect

thanks in advance

why would u waste the money on stock turbo?

money

i dont think there will be extra carbon build up as long as you beat on it some to burn it

stop wasting your money... get alky and a turbo upgrade...
you'll be more happy

and sry i didnt answer you question before.... its no leaded gas so its better quality. you should be 100% okay

cheers!

So with an alky kit can I still run as agressive timming as I am now?

you should make about the same power as ya would running 109 for a lot less money....

the kit itself starts at 265 and 130 for the fail safe... snow performance

a tank of methanol will last at least a couple fills at the gas staion if your jamming on the gas 24/7

25-30$ for a 5 gallon jug and ya dilute it 50/50... depending how much driving you do... a gallon lasts my friend about a month and he's very aggresive and drives about 300-350 a week

cheers!
