Cheveron Vs 76

Not all 91 gas is the same I learned that when to the Socal Dyno day (3/05/05) at Tunning Techlogies (TT) and got custom tunned by Shiv

I have a stage 1

HKS Exhaust
Helix DP
UR highflow cat
Fidanza Cam Gears
Walbro Fuel pump
K&N drop in filter
NGK Iriduim plugs

The last pull on Chevron (91) I made 284WHP and 290TQ
Chart1


I went back to TT 3/08/05 with 76 gas 91 and I made an avg of 298WHP/298TQ for three runs
Chart2


On 100 I made 324WHP and 311TQ.




The Gas I used in my case made a big difference. I am 76 fan now

I've only heard great things about 76!
Recently, Paul and I have had issue with the quality of the gas at the pump here, which sucks. Its really hard to find a 76 station locally, but the company I always like to use here out east is Phillips 66. Its actually a sister brand to 76, both owned by Conoco/Phillips. Check them out on the web at www.conocophillips.com.

Those oil companies make sickening income.. 2.4 BILLION dollars in NET income for the 4th Quarter of 2004 only! WTF are you going to do with 2.4 billion dollars just sitting there in a bank account?

Wasn't trying to be condisending. I've filled up at Arco a few times with my car and I've noticed definite gas milage dropoff (between 1-2 mpg) compaired to 76. And this with a Spec-V. So if my empty paint can equivalent of a car sees a difference, imagine what the effect will have on an Evo.
