If you start at Adelaide and point towards Perth, I reckon by the time you get to Mundrabilla, you'd be making some good power on 98. Does anyone concur?

I wouldn't jump to race fuels to mask that, just backed the tune off to a safe point and when I go to the track or skidpan I chuck a bottle of octane booster in for a safety margin. I will fix the timing limitations to fix the early pinging before the next tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Mazda CX-7 make's 115.1 kilowatt's at all four wheel's on their Dyno on BP Ultimate LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael (HYPOEB) Donating Members 24 Member For: 13y 7m 12d Posted 02/11/11 07:32 AM Share Posted 02/11/11 07:32 AM Bump for an old thread.I will be in the same boat soon. As alot of people have said the timing will be up the sh*t and motors will start blowing when trying to push big numbers on 98. But yet I see in the 500+ club there are quite a few cars pushing 500+rwkw on 98. Would be intresting to hear what there builders/tuners/owners think of using 98 for such big power.

Even the strongest of motors will quickly succumb to detonation often in a matter of a couple of seconds if its severe enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
