Yes TFS 235 cnc heads.

And remember, this is only with 104 octane fuel. I could have a bit more power with q16/c16 but that is not allowed here in Europe

conventonal wisdom here in the states tell us that you cant go that fast on 104 octane, hence why people spend $10 a gallon for the good stuff.

are you pulling timing? water injection, or is 104 octane good enough and we just go overkill over here in the states
