Take your oxygen sensors out or they will be expensive paperweights

Default You will need a chip that has enough adv timing to burn that 115 octane

if you run on a street chip your going to feel less power then with pump gas since the spark will be too late.

Default not a question of need... sometimes all the track has is 108 or 115 leaded

I if can use that fuel and gain power with some minor mods why not... I just dont know what it would do to internals and seals and what not.

Default becase its a pain in the ***....why dont I just bring a 55 gal drum of 103 to the track...

becase its a pain in the ***! I bring my tires a few tools and a dirty shirt with something insulting on it for the drivers of some other kind of car......I dont have room for a massive pain in the ***!!
