Setting up my new s/c for premium fuel

[spray25]

you guys should consider Torco it is one of the only additives that actually add multiple points to your octane, It comes in 32 oz cans that can be carried in your back pack or on the sled. it will turn 10 gallons of 91 into 100 oct.

This is a great alternative for places you can only get bad fuel at.

Spend some time on Google and you will find tests that show the Torco works and most others, including NOS, don't.

Woa that stuff looks awesome. I wonder what it would test out at mixed with 87 either way I will run some of that and carry in my pack on the trail.

My background is cars and we use this stuff all the time in 800hp cars its the only additive that works.

Okay....


My rx1 mtn do works PERFECTLY on 91 octane

But I previously learned the hard way it wont on 87 octane......


SO I would like to know.... if I fill her up with 87 octane and pour this little magic octane booster can into her.....

Will the engine run flawlessly as on 91 octane or will I detonate it to death like on 87 octane?


Anyone willing here willing to take the rish of paying if I do test it and it fails?

 

[heath@mpi]

i can gurantee it will work better then 91 oct alone.

if it runs great on 91 with no issues it you will have more octane with the torco and 87

What is the real world octane that has been seen on 10 gallons of pump 87 and 32 oz of torco?

 

[heath@mpi]

I dont know 100% but looking at there conversion on there website for diff octanes i would say about 98

Okay so back to my post.

Is there is any warranty that if I can prove my sled run on 91 octane (I can video tape 60sec WOT runs and no issues..


then do the same runs on 87 octane and torco bottle into it and no issues?


If not, I won't be trying this.

I thought that the previous threads were very relative to the topic that I started on this thread. Mulot it sounds like you are being unrealistic maybe even sarcastic to MPI and Torco. If an independent test proves the octane #'s claimed then I am satisfied with the results. Even with 91 the octane can be off due to the age in the tank. If torco can provide legitimate independent tests that prove their claims on octane points then I think that is insurance worth buying.

insane - MulotTurbo has destroyed a motor running it on 87 at very low boost, I can understand his sceptisism. I would really like to know where to find info on the validity of the claimed octane levels of different type of boosters, pump fuels and racefuels. Independent tests are the only ones to thrust.

BTW - I don't think MulotTurbo is unfair towards any other on this topic.

If this stuff does work, I will be first in line to use it,as I am like other peoples here... I don't like to be tied to the blue fuel barrels... get annoying sometimes... (in higher boost levels...)

 

[insane]

Sorry just seemed a little unrealistic to ask for an engine replacement for trying out a product when there is a thousand other variables that could destroy a motor in such a test. I believe we are all just looking for the proper answer to the million dollar question. What is the actual octane boost gained in 87 octane when using the torco product? I have read their web site but have yet to see an independent test. Has anyone seen an independent test on this product? I apologize Mulot, I just don't want this thread to go estray after we have come so far. lol

This stuff works but it does not cover driver stupidity; as in too much boost or too long of a full throttle run..

 

[insane]

My stupidity is good for a loss of a few octane points for sure.

Independent testing is the key word here to verify the true octane of any fuel and additives or the mix of them

Real world experiences does count IMO but I would like to hear what a cetrain fuel (pump, race, additives or the mix of them) will do in a turbo sled application so we can compare apples to appels on boost, setups, fuels and additives and make our decicion upon real world results.

When setting up a sled there is a lot more to it than octane alone, like Turk says the octane requirement will also have to take into account how the sled is going to be run in the worst case scenario.
