Default which fuel to run

im trying to decide which fuel to run 93 or 110. i running a semi built lsvtec and i was wondering if i want to run 110, can i add some timing to gain torque. i know i cant compare ls turbo to lsvtec turbo but i seen some ls turbo make as much tq as power, like there a guy on here is making i think 403hp and 300tq, so i wonder if i could make that kind of torque as much as hp.

Just turn up the boost and only rev it to 7200rpm.

If this is a track only car sure run 110, but if you are going to drive it on the street, I would say no. So you dont have to shell out for that really exspensive 110. If you think 110 is not exspensive and you can run it all the time, just save your money and upgrade your setup. All these people do race gas tunes on street cars and I dont understand it. I am not going to pay for 110 or C16 for my street car that I will primarally be driving on the street.

well considering most of us in the USA get by with 91-93 octane, you will be ok.
