Default Race gas Versus Pump gas on high compression N-A app

ok here it is

on some of these all motor guys who claim to be running 12.5-1 compression and are making good numbers based off tuning would it be more beneficial to run like 110 octane ..would there be a increase in hp level if race gas is used

Race gas is only needed if ur car has detnation besides that ur car like it running a little hot sometimes Also 110 octane is a little high for compression of 12:5:1 better off using 100

NO, octane does NOT mean horsepower.

i listen to these idiots all day, "i put 110 race gas in and i swear my 96 civic 4dr lx automatic feels faster!"
