This... LOL!

We are not Honda Civic drivers who buy a FI kit off ebay and install it overnight in our parents garage only to have it blow up in your face the next day trying to be a drift king.

When I had my 350z aps TT I used to get race gas from a local airport or just pickup some xylene or toluene and mix myself to get the desired octane...

Hey man I'm in CT too and I'm looking for a place to do my possible FI install, who do you have for your install?

You have to use SOOOOOOO much Xylene or Toluene though... And it's illegal in places... Like CA, lol

If one decides to do this, know that Xylene will dry things out so mix it with some Marvel Mystery Oil

Bump, this is a great thread, but I feel there is MUCH MORE info since these posts were made reguarding limits on tq curve, different fuel types, and boost levels with longevity.
