SupraGlue Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 Wild guess - shorter combustion event needs a faster burning fuel, ie. lower octane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is correct. There is no need for high octane in a na 7. This is why race gas is cheap for the race car. Stop by your local Sunoco for some 86.
