V12-Biturbo
I used Torco (race gas) = 100 octane

The effects were vastly different power delivery & very noticable SOTP increase! I'm going to Dyno to quantify my Butomometer findings, the SL600 tt feels like a BEAST on 100 oct..

Everything else is STOCK besides cat-back (which as we all know is mostly for better sound, I'd say 10-15 crank HP if anything)

Anyhow anyone else already try High octane or Torco on their stock or tuned V12 tt? what were your impressions?

Haven't tried it yet, it would be an interesting thing to add to a dyno day to see what effect it has, just 93 octance here at the pumps.
