100 octane by Shell
I saw an add on German TV yesterday where they introduce their V-power with 100 octane unleaded for the public.
I guess in terms of tuning this is good news.

octane unleaded for the public.

you can get 100 octane at the pump from
selected 76 gas stations.

If you can't find a site near you, use the "Station Finder" at 76.com or call 800-345-0076
by the way, it's about $4.50-$4.99 per gallon

Planning on dong a dyno on Saturday (btw with 98 European octane which is 93 USA octane vadim tells me). I will post the results ....
No 1/4 mile done because I have no idea where I can do 1/4 runs in Europe.
My C32 tuning project has one more step to go > ECU mod.
Unless Vadim and his people come up with some other stuff that can further tickle some HP the ECU mod will be the last change.

Kinda funny that you guys are talking about 100 octane. I went into my friend's car shop and he had the 76 100 octane all over the place. First time seeing it. Didn't get a price though. Anyone planning on using it?

Any parts store has octane booster of many types. I use Octane Booster 108 (when mixed properly at the correct ratio gives you 100 octane) 1 can lasts for 2 fill ups on my 93 PFS RX-7 and costs $7 a can. I have always been told that if an engine is stock you should only the MINIMUM octane required.
