I never realised how low the octane ratings of your gas were in North America - in the UK they start at 95, then you have "super unleaded" at 97 and then there's Shell who do a 97 one and BP do 102 octane fuel but that's very expensive - about £15 a gallon or something

I guess that and your stricter emissions tests are why people in the UK always look at the size of US stock engines and go "How on earth did the manufacturer get such a small amount of bhp out of them" - you learn something new every day ![]() This post has been edited by BigAl_UK: May 17, 2007 - 4:56 AM |
