Can you explain your theory behind this statement? |
Tell u what.. u go fill ur tank with FULL 100 octane or more and run it for a few days and get ur as* comfortable with the feel of boost....
Then when u run OUT of that race gas... go and pump regular good ole 93 octane and go for a ride and tell me what u feel.... |
That statement is correct but saying that 100 octane fuel will give you less power is wrong. If you car was tuned for 93, using 100 octane would decrease hp. Tuned for 100 octane, you'll make more power at the same boost levels. |
These statements are too general! I was looking for specifics like what method was used to determine the octane rating since there are more than one and what type of fuel...etc _________________ 1991 240SX, hatchback

yes it will give u less power if you DO NOT tune for the change... if all is left alone, them u WILL loose power...If you car was tuned for 93, using 100 octane would decrease hp. Tuned for 100 octane, you'll make more power at the same boost levels. |
I never said anything about re-tunning or changing anything when switching from 93 to 100... so my statement still stands as TRUE. |

Your car looks good! Now put some bigger injectors and the calumRT in her and feel what 300whp really feels like.
230whp will easily beet sr's, 350z's, swapped civics etc.
300whp and now were talking evo's, sti's, c5 vettes, and knocking on c6's and cobras. |
233whp took stock evo. |

i did 370 whp and i ran a "supposit" stock C6 and he beat me by 2 cars.... We went from a 3rd gear 45 mph roll and he jumped me by about 1 car, and slowly pulled on me and he got about 2 cars, then we both dropped off, and i was at mid 5th gear...
i didnt believe he was stock so he popped the hood, showed my and he had stock intake... with stock air filter, stock ex manifold and stock catback with stock muffler and his **** SOUNDED stock when he gave it gas with low quiet idle and NO bottle anywhere in the back seat, floor board nor trunk.. _________________ Built KA-T, Bullseye 60-1: Emanage, E85, 19*, 18 lbs = 400+ whp

^^ there is no way in hell that that vette was stock. my buddy in his 320whp sr owned a couple c6 vettes(not z06). but with the power your making now you should be walking on z06's and 500 hp cobra's. i never got to race a z06 but i did beat a 500+ hp cobra. i have a vid of that. i only beat him by a car _________________

08-09's are no joke. They commonly put down 390-400whp bone stock. GM has a winner w/the LS3. So him pulling on you a little doesn't sound unreasonable and it could very well could be tuned. _________________ Owner- Underground Motorsports

I just read that Car and Driver's 2008 test vette ran a 12.4 at 116mph. Therefore, in a stock weight 240sx it will take around 340-360whp to keep up with it. _________________ RIP Nate(480sx)... |

That run was about 2 weeks after that 370 whp dyno at 18 psi.... If i would have taken it to 22 psi, i would have been a little bit over 400 whp and i would have prob taken him...
Stock or not, tunned or not... he jumped 1 full car immediately, then slowly gained another car and by the end it was about 2 cars past me...
Its all good. im not worried about the loss, their is ALWAYS someone faster and the fact that my little 4-banger is running with those big dogs makes me feel better, and not to mention that those results will wake up some of those hardcore domestic V8's to realize that their motor's are not the only game in town anymore... _________________ Built KA-T, Bullseye 60-1: Emanage, E85, 19*, 18 lbs = 400+ whp

Were you brake boosting? And are you about to make the switch to E85? I'm just a few weeks away from doing so myself. _________________ Owner- Underground Motorsports

no i was not brake boosting... Just good old fashion 3 honks and then flooring the sob... I was already at about 4500 rpm so i was already in the sweet spot for the turbo and it built up the 18 psi quick... there was no lag at all.
I already switched over to E85. I adjusted the afc to compensate for the E85 during normal idle, normal crusing and during wot. So right now its NOT fully tunned afr wise for wot but its enough to keep the motor from running lean.
i just got the emanage with the injector harness, ignition harness, map sensor and CD with the serial cable. Now im just waiting on my laptop to be switched over to Windows XP cause emanage is NOT vista compatible.
Once i get the laptop back, im gonna remove the jwt ecu and afc, put the stock ecu back in and start wiring up the emanage and get it up and running. Once i get the idle right and get it to cruise nice and smooth, then ill work on some wot pulls and start messing with timming cause i wana see what this E85 is really made of. Hell, there is a local ka-t here that did 14 psi (t04e) on stock 26 deg wot timming with stock compression on E85 and had NO knock at all and with the knock lite set at sensitivity 3..!! he said that was the hardest pull he ever felt from that motor... hehe
From what they say, E85 loves boost and loves timming.. |

man I havent seen this thread in a while, yes that was me on 14 psi wit stock and lemme tell you it has response like V8, here lemme show you what im talkin about.
I raced a 04-05 Mach 1 mustang procharged (8-9 psi) he made 467 whp and heres how I did spiking to 15 psi holding 13 psi.
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Turbo-240sx-vs-Procharged_642731.htm
2nd race i ***** up bad in 2nd gear and jus gave up. but notice how spinning away I still pulled and no brake boosting, the timing helps that spool and hit. _________________ 12.2@115 on 13PSI E85!! My T2 backside is owning me... not anymore.
