Thread: 02 gtp gp vs 06 g6 gtp

Does he realize there is no such thing as an 06 GTP? Sure there are supercharged 06 GP's, but the GTP name is gone.

I'd like to add that I hate people who think race fuel can increase horsepower. That is all.

Race fuel can add Horsepower, Even with out a tuner. Say you have 4 degrees of KR and the race gas eliminates that. Guess what thats more power. But were not talking a huge differance.

Octane does not add horsepower, period. Octane is knock preventer. If you have knock and the ECU pulls timing then you are not running enough octane to begin with. You could put 100 octane in a car that only needs 93 octane to prevent knock then you will LOSE horsepower.

I disagree, Octane in itself doesnt add HP, but its effects do. And most cars come from the factory with Knock retard. The orginal debate was does race fuel increase HP. The answer is yes, if your car has knock retard. Which on this platform, Some cars seeing as much as 6 or more stock then it sure would. We can debate this all week, But the fact is, dump 93 octane in a GTP. Then dump 112 or 116 cam2 in. your gonna make more power on the cam2 if you had some Kr that pulled advancement
