I wouldn't recommend it though if only low octane is avaiable, unless the car has an aftermarket ECU & map at higher boost pressures (1.1 and above) it's *needed* to use high octane fuel. Peak power is not the issue, it's the switch-over point that causes det.
Thanks for the reply Homer, good to know .
