Default 110 Octane fuel

Will 110 octane "race gas" hurt my TTR? There is a gas station right by my house that now has it, and I want to try it to see what type of performance increase it would give as long as it wouldn't hurt anything. TIA.

Unless you need to stop detonation due to very very high boost...use 93-93

Default Probably cause detonation the other way, or backfiring.

Waste of gas. Go to the airport and get 100LL, aka 100 Octane Unleaded and try that. I'd bet the 110 octane has gasohol or some additive in it to make it that high that you don't want.

I think anything > 100 is usually leaded. Beware.
