i see, i didnt realise you could run with a higher CR like that, does it create a cooler burn, as i geuss it will be more efficiant.

Yeah, with 'x' CR and 'x' octane you can run 'x' amount of boost.

+1 I use Millers Turbo addative, switched to this from their standard octane booster and the difference was instant, the engine was much quieter. However I use leaded 4 star in mine a bit rich at £1.24 a litre but reminds me of days of old Edited by Mr Joshua on 14th Jan, 2009. Own the day

Anyone used the tetraboost stuff out of interest? If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |
