Re: BP 93 vs Quik Trip Premium: Real world, dyno proven results!

Probably, it seems to help turbo cars way more than it should. Both ethanol and methanol have very high latent heat of vaporisations compared to normal petrol fuels. Straight methanol doesn't have a crazy octane rating either, like 110-115 octane, while C16 is 116-117 octane. But you wouldn't see a C16 car running 60-80psi of boost with no intercooler, while you do with methanol cars.
