Hi Jim,

I find these results amazing, 20awkw is a substantial increase!

I have booked my final tune with crd for next week...I will post my results here for everyones perusal.

Regards,

Marko.

Hey Guys,

Here is dyno sheet of a R33 GTR with a new engine we built with R34 N1 turbochargers with before and after of 98 and 100 octane shell fuel.

Car is used for circuit only.

i filled up 1/2 tank today of extreme & did a ecu reset

it was smoother but maybe it was just in my mind lol

will get it tuned asap tho

I noticed on the V8 Supercars coverage today that they will all be using this new Shell fuel for next years racing season.

benm, did you tape yesterdays V8 races? i'd love to get a copy.

[benm]

Why must you ask silly q's?

[Beer Baron]

lol, thanks mate. I was in lovely goulburn when it was on

[R31Nismoid]

what MON rating is the new stuff?

[SECURITY]

ive had my safc tuned for 98 octane.. if i use this extreme stuff would i REALLY need a retune?

Only if you rev the engine out, or value your pistons' life spans.

The fact that higher RON level means you can run more timing isn't as important for the retune, but the fact that its oxygenated means your engine will run lean comparable to your 98RON tune is why your current setup may not be good for the engine.

If you've got it tuned close to the edge on 0% ethanol fuel, the E5 Optimax Extreme might push it to a point where you get detonation.

ok.. well ill try 1/4 tank and see how my knock sensor goes. if it sucks then ill quickly fill up with mobil 8000 (always get low knock with that stuff)

This is big I actually calculated 41 extra four wkw for extra 2 octane points. Must have had more timing and maybe more boost added to do this?

We did same on S15 yesterday and made almost 20rwkw with a bit more boost and timing.

There is a question mark with the Ethanol in it effecting injector seals as well as early model injector design and electrolysis. But hey I am going to use it and guess it should be ok or they would not release it, or are we all test pilots?

[Beer Baron]

well, i had a sip of it yesterday and it tastes no where near as good as bp ultimate. true.

It certainly looks like a good option for race use. Much cheaper than the options from elf etc.

Reset does jack....

I had mine on the dyno ~3years ago, did a few little tests - pod vs stock airbox, ecu reset. All showed a zero increase in power anywhere in the rpm.

[Marsss]

tah!

[benm]

ctrl-alt-del does the reset
