500whp is fine on the stock motor. Why would you build the motor for that?

With proper install and a good tune is it still save to run 500whp with 91 pump gas? I am doing a TT build soon but i am skeptical on pushing 500whp on the stock motor with that 91 octane(garbage fuel).

I have no idea. I don't live in a place that's cursed with 91. If I did, I'd have a meth setup for sure.
KaienZ34, elperuano and VSS370z like this.

How about 93? Is that decent fuel?
