sunoco 110 octane????
A local sunoco station has 110 octane fuel for $7.99 a gallon. I have dinan stage 2 rev2. If I fill up with this, a) will I do any damage to my car/engine and b) will I notice a difference in power?
Or should I mix 50% 93octane with 50%110octane? Has anyone used it yet with the flash???

run your car down on gas and put a few gallons in, flog the car and you will see a good HP increase. You can probably mis 50/50 w 93 and the 110 and see a good HP increase as well.

Now with high octane unleaded like Sunoco GT100 or VP Racings unleaded fuels you'll see a nice bump in power. I like the street blaze VP Fuels with no/very little ethanol.

I just called the station and the guy said he's "pretty sure" it's UNleaded. I don't trust "pretty sure" with my ride. What does sunoco have that is unleaded over 100 octane?

None, the highest octane unleaded Sunonco carries is 104 Cam GT Plus.

I just drove by the station and the pump says 110 octane NOT STREET LEGAL! i think it said maybe "cam" or "c2" or something to that effect. Needless to say I did NOT fill up!
