I searched, but didn't find anything.


And what's it going to take?


Thanks.

 

Ok, what's the most power you've seen come out of California on pump gas?

 

I'm going to assume you mean a pump-gas 4-banger turbo Honda?

As for the answer. Good luck.

Bump.

lol, yeah.

 

no, hes askin for about a v8 on 91 pump since this is a HONDA board ya know....

 

every post turns into a flame war..jesus h.

I think its gotta be around high 300's...maybe even 400. Im shooting for 400 on pump....dont know if it can be done..but I'm sure it has been done before.

 

stupid questions get stupid answers

 

Why is that a stupid question?

 

Up.

 

that sucks here in ny we can get 94 octane pump gas at sunoco

 

Since you're having problems getting answers....I'll try and help...Keep in mind, I'm still a noob myself

But your question has too many variables for a specific answer. It depends on your setup. turbo size, max psi, fuel management...

For example, you can get a lot more power on 91 octane running Hondata and a flat fuel curve then you could with an FMU and check valves all over the place.

Sorry if that didn't help..What you can do is search around for some "dyno" posts. Guys normally list the type of gas they run.

 

Thanks for the reply.

But this isn't setup dependent. I want to know what the most power people have seen out of a turbo honda running 91 octane. Or what the most power you "can" make.

 

sorry bout that....then just search under "dyno"...I just tried it and pulled up a ton of posts. I'm sure some of them list what gas they use...If not, just IM that person and ask.

 

most of the tuners ive talked to stop at 300whp on stock motors w/ 93 octane. with built motors they push it further, to 350whp. on 91 octane id assume it would be a little bit less. maybe 275 on a stock motor, 325 on a built motor. im sure u could push it further, but id prefer to keep it safe.

 

Yo there is a gas station neer me that has 104 octane... Like woah!!! I'm afraid if I fill'er up my car will never be able to run 93 again

EDIT: it's aeronautical fuel

Looking for 350whp on 91 Octane @ whatever boost it takes to get there safely.

 

i have a very similiar set up being finished up right now(but with RS sleeves, garrett, 550's). it's going to be tuned for 91 octane, it should be ready by the end of this week or beginning of next. i'll let you know.

 

Awesome. . .

 

Same here. Its great.

 

i love air force ones

 

ive heard of some dsm and nissans making 400-430whp on 94 octane pump (both 2litre turbos). There was a thread about this a few months ago...dont remember what it was about tho.

I would expect here on crappy 91 the power is goign to be alot less. Have you though about propane injection or water injection?

RyanAutry:

I thought you were a die-hard B16 guy? I thought you were all about boosting your B16, so whats with the JDM B18C. Just curious...

 

Me a Die Hard b16 guy???

lol, no. I'm just a cheap bastid'
That's why I boost a b16. $500 Long-blocks is a good thing.
If I could afford a b18c. It would be done.

This is my best friends setup.

 

Max i have seen is 285 on a boosted Si
