as far as ethonal in gas, its like that everywhere, its not going to hurt your car, mine made 550 rw with the 93 octane 10% ethonal on a nice safe street tune.
dont even...
are you aware that it it takes more energy to make one gallon of ethanol, than the potential energy of that gallon? COMPLETE waste of energy.
i got so much shit on ethanol, if anyone wants to get this one rollin start a new thread cuz i dont wanna jack this one.
allz u need to know is dont put booze in your gas tank

No it is not strange Chris. The compression ratio on a 2 valve is I beleive 8-1 or 8.5-1. You can run piss in the tank and it would still work. The compression ration ratio on a 4 valve is 10.5-1. That is why you need to run premium fuel with a 4 valve. Higher compression needs higher octane rating to reduce the risk of detonation (pinging).


compression ratio on a 96-98 4V is 9.7:1
