Blaik New Member 2 Member For: 4y 28d Posted 29/03/21 01:49 AM Share Posted 29/03/21 01:49 AM Maybe it would only get 2-4rwkw gain because of the factory tune. When the car detects 95, it would run a more conservative tune. When the car detects 98, it runs a more aggressive tune and therefore gets more power mostly from the tune. Just a theory I have made up, feel free to prove me wrong Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85952-what-petrol-to-run/page/3/#findComment-1703619 Share on other sites More sharing options...
