Re: Running 87oct in my Turbo'd GSX

Who cares if prices jump up 20 cents... on a DSM it will cost you an extra $2.00 to fill the tank watch out. Are you gonna stop driving if they get super high?? Probably not. Just think of all the people driving over seas and what they pay, we got it good.

Some newer cars and motorcycles may do this. But the 1990-2000 Hondas, Supras, 240sx, 300zx, etc with knock sensors only use it to retard timing from their base timing maps.

I get it soon, I am still between that and a GSXR600-750. Depends on what is available when I decide to go buy it. Yeah we will definitely have to go ride sometime. We will have to set something up then.
