I believe there used to be a thread on where you could find 100+ octane at the pumps? I believe there is a Sunoco by Innovative Tuning which has 104 Octane? Can anyone confirm this? Sorry if I missed the thread in another forum, I tried searching and found nothing! ☹ Just FYI, Delta Sonic won’t have the 100 Octane on tap until May, or whenever the nicer weather comes…or so I was told. Thanks ---

If your truck doesn’t have much engine work, ie) upped compression, FI, tuned to use a high octane rating, use what the factory manual recommends. ---

If your car/truck says 87… run 87. Running a higher octane will slow your performance down and just end up costing you money. ---

^^^ word to the responses for mikes98rt higher octane fuels have LESS energy to them, and if your vehical runs fine on 91, then 91 is all it needs, race gas is only needed when lower grade fuels would cause damage (super high compression, high boost ect) ---

the LOWEST octane your engine can run on without pre-igniting is what will make the most power for you. 93 in a car designed for 87 is just throwing money away. ---

> [@K Cuv](#): > > FYI > > Delta Sonic 100 octance Fuel is **_LEADED_** Are you positive about this, because I believe it is illegal to run leaded gas in a car, and hence, it would make it illegal for them to sell it. I don’t believe this is true, because it it was leaded, it would destroy your cat. I dunno, I could be wrong, but I don’t believe it is leaded. ---
