was a good read. it was optional, and i opted to read it. simple as that.

As for your question, i have no clue. i came here for the entertainment. Good luck w/ the build and everyone bagging about you being 20, take it as a compliment.

So what exactly does the turbo size have to do with the octane rating?

Smaller turbos = more boost
more boost with regular gas = uh oh

I understand they make more boost but horsepower is still horsepower. I thought that was what you were worried about, him making 1000rwhp on pump gas.

As pressure rises, so does temperature
Higher boost = higher IAT
Compressor maps and effiency comes into play as well

I get all that but I just wasn't sure if the need for c16 was the amount of power or the size of the turbos.

With small turbos yes because you are boosting more. With a bigger turbo you don't have to boost as much.


My car made 915whp on pump gas at like 6 or 7psi. If it took me 17psi to make that power I would be worried running pump.
