if you want to continue the experiment, try 87.


the idea is to add octane. more octane means more timing. more timing is more power. more power is more smiles
My understanding is Methanol injection sprayed front of throttle body does not produce the same cooling effect in the cylinder during combustion as Ethanol injected at 2000+ psi.

Mike AKA toohighpsi had some good data on the subject posted a while back.
