PP or Non-PP: Who's Got What POLL

Way off base-we will disagree on that one! Before I tuned my car I noticed a big difference going from 87 to 93 and I'm not completely crazy-yet!

I didn't say there is no difference when going from 87 to 93 but to say the car was designed for 93 is wrong....The difference in power you are feeling and have from switching fuels is owed to the use of knock sensors and engine management which isn't exclusive to ecoboost but the level of compression and boost on regular fuel is somewhat exclusive to direct injection, which the ecoboost has.

I understand exactly how the ecoboost engine works and you actually said 87 would perform better which is wrong! And I meant the ecoboost engine performs better with a higher grade fuel-if you feel better about 87 then there is nothing wrong with that. Read the owners manual about a higher grade fuel or better yet Google it

You should go back and read my post...I never said 87 will perform better....I said it was designed to be able to use 87. And I have a manual and it says premium is recommended for better performance....I can't run 87 in my car anymore or there would be so much knock retard it would be pointless if it would even handle it at all, I never really tried at the boost I run, especially considering I'm not using meth.

Hey Z, my PP is bigger and better than yours lol

Hell, you can use Chevron too.
Before too long my terminal will have a Chevron exchange.

The importance is to make sure she is running fat and rich which at the end produces more power and weight.

[wasinger3000]

Just add meth.

Wonder what the weight difference is with all those nice cookies, is that why the non pp can hang in the 1/4...hmmm

Rich

Being able to hang with a faster car is kinda cool but if you lose by 2 car lengths you're still slower

For sure...racing against "BAMSHO", he treed me pretty good and my 12.69 lost to his I think 12.84 by .03....probably my favorite run yet. Had to look at the slip to see who won.
