if you have a power tune requiring you to tun 93 octane can you spray if you have colder range plugs and race gas or do you still need to retard the timing. i have tunercat but have no idea of how to do it. i have a mailorder tune though.

 

How much are you planning on spraying???

 

100-150 at the most

 

I use Sonoco 104 and run full timing with the 175 shot.

 

At that power level, with race gas, and colder plugs, you'll be good to go... Just tune it to run fastest on motor, then squeeze it!

 

k thanks guys and sorry d redd i had already posted it before i talked to ya...its not that i didnt trust you or anything lol

 

Where do you get it? You probably have a gas station around you that sells it huh? I wish i could find some around here

 

Not actually a gas station, but a shop around the corner sells it by the gallon.

 

I'm pulling 7 degrees on 93 octane with a 175 shot, it's a little conservative but better safe than sorry.

 

2 degrees per 50 shot is the norm unless you run race fuel it'll be less.

How has your car ran with 175 shot and pulling 7 degrees?

 

Runs great! No times on the 175 shot with pump gas yet, but with a 150 shot and 100 octane with no timing pulled it ran a 11.7 at 117 with a 1.6 60' on ET streets... The car is on it's 3rd rear end.

Oh yeah, I'm using autolite 104's gapped at 35.

 

NICE

 

I've heard you don't need to pull any timing until you're above 150 shot, then 2 degrees for every 50hp after that. So a 200 shot should get 2 degrees pulled.

yea i can see for base timing or whatever but my question was for if you have a custom tune for n.a. where the timing will be a little higher then stock

 

I've heard stories of NX service reps saying that, but I'm pretty skeptical, I've seen too many posts about people reading slight knock with 100 shot with 93 and no timing pulled, I don't have a scan tool so I don't know.
