It's a good way to increase your octane if you can't find a station that sells racing gas.

 

The Grand National boys have been doing it for ages. My bro's 87 ran well with the combo but there were a fair amount of mods he had done to the car which required that level of octane. Goes with having a 12-sec car I guess.

 

Only for Turbos

 

For those on the board who are having trouble finding higher octane! I might try this next time I take it to the track.

 

so, it's not gonna hurt the car?

 

I posted this this morning weird.

 

I may be wrong (I'm sure somebody will let me know) but at some point, too much octane is a waste right? What I mean is, say, fuel at 95 octane on a stock motor may not be any more benificial, or produce any more power than 93 octane gasoline. This, of course, is only for naturally aspirated motors and not high compression. FI is a different story too.

 

Visit the GN forum (I used to have it bookmarked, forgive me) and do a search for the subject and read until your heart's desire. I'll tell you one thing though...that is one car I usually don't even begin to mess with because after all these years, few are stock. They will downright embarass you...that is of course, until a corner arrives, in which case the owner will see his life flash in front of him and slow down which allows any savvy S2000 owner the pleasure of whipping on by! As fast as my bro's GN was, it still couldn't hang with my '99 SVT Lightning on a simple romp through the woods and the Ford was bone stock.
