87 octang with 15* of timing

i just bought my steeda T/A i want to set my timing at 15*BTDC at idle. i was wondering if i could still use 87 oct, on would i have to use 93 and at about 3.50$ a gallon

uh, it will probably ping

hell, I think mines pinging from 1500-2k with 93 octane and 14 degrees

why not try and see if it pings?

If you set it at 15 and run 87 in it I'll bet that thing is gonna sound like a washing machine full of marbles.

well i gues ill have to run 93 then

should i start off at like 12*, with 93 then work my way up to see if it pings?

With the TA I had I ran 93 and started at 13. At 14 it would ping on hot days and be fine on cold ones. I have however seen people running tham at 16 or 17 with no detonation on 93. So, each car will react differently. My suggestion is to keep the allen wrench in the car at all times. If you get bad gas or something you can back it down immediately.

good choice!

good thing about your timing adjuster, is that it does exactly what it says. It takes a minute to adjust it, so you can the change what type of fuel you run. \

just because you can run your car with more timing doesnt mean your going to make more power. Id start off in the 13-15 area.

You need to get you one Mark so we can see what the NPI can do

huh??

Your advanced spark timing requires a better burning fuel, or else you will ping all day long and probably end up with less power than you started with. Make the jump to 93. It will cost you all of 5 bucks extra to top off your tank

haha, my bad
