Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how is it a leaner mixture? Its a higher octane which should be better for forced induction cars... safer... heck you can even bump up the boost or mess with the timing to get a little more out of her. If I have a 91 octane tune and I am putting in a 94oc mixture..yes i am getting less power BUT I can use a 93octane tune to compensate, which increases timeing and takes advantage of the add octane. Now as for how it burns...thats a different story..that may lead to further issues.

 

i cant find anything on this.... ive been to yahoo, google, ask.com, msn, and like 5 others, and no results. akward.

 

no, akward is jarrod with a bra on his head

 

It's not so much octane as it is the flash point....

This is getting old... All gas will eventually have some percentage of alcohol in it. If you don't like it... ride a bike.

 

preach it brotha!

 

Was that directed towars me paully... if so... you know where Im going to park that bike! respectfully of course

 

No not at you... just at the topic in general. I think it's pointless and definitly not a hill worth dying for.

 

Hey I need all the help I can get paul... so if I can still find non ethenol gas before going to the track I dang will do it... you stick to your ethelblend QT gas and we'll line up at the drags .....

PS I like hills... yummy

 

hmm all of this smack talkin gets me to thinkin that jarrod has baught him self some tires.... maybe some 395/40/17's? haha that would be CRAZY!!!

 

no tires yet... but it wont be long

 

jarrod, what size are your stock tires???

 

175/80/13

 

235s

 

hmm... no wonder your having trouble in the mid 13's... you did good that last run, dang your tires are skinny!lol

 

Thanks Andrew I appreciate the humor.

 

glad to help out!

 

+1 They had an article in the paper today about E10. Its here to stay.

 

It might be here to stay but I still don't like it. The fiesta marts in Tulsa still has ethanol free gas in Tulsa for now but that will probably change. Most people can't see beyond the price on the sign and in order to compete they will have to do it eventually. I just hope that there is a couple of places that will hold out because they will get my business. I am angry about getting ripped off by quicktrip and will give my business to someone else in the future because of what they done.

It is most likely that E10 is here to stay since MTBE in ether has been banned in gasoline. They are both oxygenates but mtbe causes water pollution.

I hate the Tulsa world news paper because they are a bunch of left wing, tree hugger's that distort the truth for there own political agenda.

 

what about phillips 66?

 

don't egg it on...
