I was wondering how you got away with a 650 kit in LA/OC. Now I know! Any issues running Torco on the reg? Allegedly there is 95 at the pump in Rancho Santa Fe (where there is a high number of performance cars per capita) but that's far out of the way for me. |
I've been running Torco for a while and I don't want to say that there have been no issues (it tends to leave an orange residue) because I went through plugs and o2 sensors in 15,000 miles, but then again those were 15,000 hard miles so now that I'm pretty chill with the car, I will probably get more than 15k with the plugs/sensors.
Torco is about $20 per 32oz bottle so it doesn't break the bank like race gas and increases effective octane to maybe 93-95 even though it's advertised to make more. I still make 10+ more RWHP with a blend of 91 and pump VP 100 race gas from a 76 station near my office in Newport Beach so 570-ish is probably what I would consistently dyno with better octane. Not bad for having a quiet car with cats.
