gains witrh racegas?
I have always run 93/meth and wondered how much power i might gain by running really high octane racegas?
Any speculation? I am not going to turn up the boost anymore...just add timing.
right now i am running around 17psi with the Incons and around 15-18 timing

It is much more resistant to pre-ignition and detonation (which is why you can run more boost/compression/timing) , but the burn rate for most gasolines is very similar.

I also tend to run 100LL a lot and have to bump my timing 2-3 on it to get it to run as well at the same boost level compared to 100 unleaded or 91+meth. With 100 unleaded i'll bump my timing and extra 2 degrees compared to 91 and run some 3 more psi, with 100LL i bump the timing 5 degrees and run 3 more psi. I normally run 100LL for playing around since 100 unleaded is $4.50/gal and 100LL is $2.69/gal
Just posting my observations. To me the needed increase of timing to get back to the same power level seems to be due to a slower burn rate.
Either way I prefer to make minimum timing changes needed and just turn up the boost instead.
