Does anyone use racing fuel?

Will the 7MGTE run off straight 104 racing fuel with no fuel upgrades?

 

[Bigdough666]

what do you mean fuel upgrades?

But to answer your question, I run 104 octane all the time.

 

[super7mgtepower]

Well maybe i put that wrong, like upgraded ignition to burn the fuel or maybe air flow meter. I just wanna know on stock specs well the 7m run and idle good.

Thank you.

Is it leaded ?

 

[super7mgtepower]

I hope not, it's called Mark's Racing Fuel they sell it at our Phillips 66, ever heard of it? I really wanna run good fuel so i dont want to resort to octane booster crap.

you can, but the question is why?

Higher octane makes the fuel harder to burn. Higher octane = less power...unless you're turning the boost up to where you can take advantage of the higher detonation threshhold...

make SURE the fuels you are burning are not oxygenated, if you are not going to tune the car for it. oxy fuels require on average 5% more volume to hold the same stoich as pump gas

that's on average, and every fuel is different of course
