Unless you have very high compression, Av gas is of zero use for you.
I hope it is Av gas you are referring to, as your car will not run on jet fuel, which is a refined kerosine.

i'll second that... with your mods, it won't really do you much good at all. higher octane fuel helps reduce the risks of detonation when using NOS.

so i you guys were to get it for free would you use it in your car and it is avaition gas not jet fuel sorry
and with a 12 to 1 compression motor it would be a good idea
and for nos setups will this stuff fu(k up your O2 sensors
