Let's talk octane...

^^^ Yep, it seems that there isn't much room to add timing beyond the OEM maps. Yet another reason why higher octane fuels on our motor are only really useful

Yet another reason why higher octane fuels on our motor are only really useful as a precaution for hot laps at the track on a haot day, and even then not critical.

The OEM timing maps are pretty good at self-adjusting -- it's prety hard to get this motor to ping, from what I've been told (then again, see this... )
