Ok, I know I'm prolly gonna catch alot of flack for this and I'm not even sure it's in the right section. I recently found a gas station really close to where I live that dispenses 110 and I'm wondering....do i need a tune for this or can I just put it in and go? yes, I know, prolly a dumb question, but I don't know the answer. And the only way to get one is to ask it anyway lol

 

I think it a legit question.....I am almost 110% positive that you will need a tune.....

 

Only almost? lol Another dumb question....is it really worth it over 93? I mean, am I going to notice a difference or is it just going to be better for the car?

 

I'm sure you will notice a slight difference..... I used to have a 76' chevy truck with a 400SB and a 750 cfm holly....I ran 94 all the time in it, then ran 110, notice a little more, but when I ran airplane fuel(140 octane i think) in it at the track, **** it was fast.....but then for that all I did was adjust the air/fuel with a screw driver

 

as far as i know, you dont need a tune, but its pointless without a tune for the most part.

 

Jet fuel you say? that sounds as if it could be fun lol I'd rather run the 110 in it and get it used to it before I do my major build in which case, that's all she'll ever see.

 

Not jet fuel, lol.........prop plane fuel

 

damn....jet fuel would be better. All the airports near here have stopped selling their stuff to car guys. I dunno why tho, just things I've been hearin from the muscle car guys around here.


Ok, nother question then...WickedSS is who I'd have tune me up, but he lives almost 3 hours away from me. By the time I got down there, I'd need a filler up for the trip back. Tuned on 110, could I run 93?

 

just switch to the 93 tune again, i dont think it would be a good idea to drive with 93 on a 110 tune lol.
do you plan on always filling up with 110?

 

Well that is the plan. This car is quite soon to become a 400whp monster and it's no longer going to be my DD. I'm goin with the Hahn Lvl 5 setup and we're gonna push the limits and go for 400whp. But thru the winter and work week it's gonna stay in the garage. Track days and local car meets on occasion are about the only time I'm gonna bring her out. So yea, always gonna be 110

 

I would just try finding 110 there and driving back with 110 just to be safe, or if you have hp tuners just switch to the 93 tune till you fill up again.

 

If you don't have a tune you are wasting your money. Is the 110 leaded or unleaded? If it is leaded it will **** up your cat.

 

wont leaded **** up o2 sensors to?

 

Yes it can. You would have to disable the rear o2 and get rid of the cat.

 

There's no point in 110. Go 96 without having to worry about anything else

 

Unleaded 110

We don't have 96 around here that I know of. 94 is the highest I've seen and that's at a Sunoco station

 

haha
i sometimes run 110 in my honda crf250
its awesome. it burns kinda whitish

 

If you put in 110 octane without a tune.. your not going to notice ANY power difference... if you do, that means you had knock retard and it is now gone due to higher octane..

if you tune for 110 octane, and use a lower octane... and hit the gas... you will probably hurt your engine...

 

if the 3 hour distance bothers you, find a closer tuner. Idk where wadsworth ohio is but I'm near y-town if that helps.

and no, you cant run 93 with a race gas tune...
