Subject: Re: E-10 Fuel by Ultraman on 2010/8/31 23:53:46 My 90 recommends Premium fuel which is usually 91 Octane. I just got my Car and Driver magazine and in their Backfires section someone asked if a Porsche that had a 93 octane requirement was using that when they did the tests. C & D answered that in California all they could get was 91 octane and ran all their car performance test on that. They realize that the spark will be more retarded and the power down but that is the fuel they are stuck with. They go on to say that they ran a Bently Continental GTC Speed on 91 octane and ran 4.8 to 60 mph and 13.4 in the 1/4 mile. With 93 octane the same car ran 4.3 to 60 and 12.8 in the 1/4 mile with that fuel. From 13.4 to 12.8 is huge it think with only that as the difference. |
