I was wondering if ne1 has been running on both 91 and 94 octane fuel..and if they noticed a difference ??
thx

i always buy 93.... i never saw anything higher where i am at

man..i have been using 91 because it is the highest octane that this touch free car esso stn has...but i think it is effecting perf. 94 is Available here..my tank is almost bone dry, will fill with 94 tonight and report back in a bit....

when i drove mazda 929, i put 87 and 92 once, and didnt like it. i felt less power... so since then i always buy 93.

Does ne1 use STP fuel additives....are they just junk or ??/
thanx

In Cali the highest we get is 91..no options here. Car runs fine. It not like we are running any FI.

Chevron/techron fuel injector cleaner is pretty good from what I hear. I'm not sure if thats the type of fuel additive you are talking about.

hmm 91....that sux.....i will report back on fuel economy on this tank of 94. May take a tank or so to reset ECU ne1 know ?

i would think the knock sensor/system will make the necessary timing and fueling adjustments in realtime, so you should be good to go asap...

the level/type of detergents in the higher oct. fuel will take a bit longer to aid performance (if at all)

try 5 tanks, and if you dont notice any difference, the sixth one is on the house.. (j/k)

Here in NM 91 is the highest if you are lucky. Sometimes 89 is the highest. I fill up at 1/4 tank in case I have to find 91.

nada mucho bro......

i have, however, found MANY VQ setups that would definately be modifiable to work on the VK....

the only sticking point is the final bend (90°) going to the front diffuser/inlet shroud....

i still think paddock's is quite right, but their cost and customer service is not agreeable to me whatsoever..

Argh....I guess we will be at Stillens mercy.... tick,tock,tick,tock

i feel your pain....

perhaps paddock has lowered their pricing??? (i am not advocated them , but just trying to give ya an option)

ps- dont try the z-tube, as it is missing the variable intake pressure-tube inlet (exclusive to the VK)

another returned part!!lol

hey esemes, why don't you try to encorporate an aftermarket intake from another V8 motor. Maybe a chevy or something. Just a thought.
