I'm sorry...this is up for debate on another board. That guy can drive but they claim to be pushing 35-40 PSI on 93. Either that car is a ticking timebomb or I'm saying it's got race gas in it. Tuner will not give any info on it si a lot of people are suspiciose of it.

93 octane with spray or methanol isnt out of the question

Impressive indeed. I wonder how often it breaks? It seems the import guys run those cars pretty hard, but hey if you got the cash I say go for it!

if the 93 octane is true...that's simply tuning genius w/ a 4 banger...
low tens on a 4.6 is simply not heard of w/ 93 octane...I'm hoping this is true...dave buscher has been tuning diamond stars for a very very long time and is very reputable so I hope it's true...

Wrong, There is a guy over on Turbomustangs.com who has ran 9.35's on pump gas. Not to mention countless other turbo guys.

I've seen this video posted on a couple of forums. I never read through any of the feedback till now, I would like to see what the fuel system is.....because if they claim it on pump gas, with no race gas and that kind of boost there is only one answer.....

E85 or E98. Both are and can be sold right at the pump.....both are NOT considered Race gas and both allow you to pull great timing without knock.

E98= 117oct E85=109oct or there abouts

It can't be e85 because they are stating that it is 93 pump gas.

told ya i didnt read though it, if so them im calling HIGH CR. I was told on another forum that it costs about $20k from Switzer or Buchur for a engine to run to run that on pump. Or there abouts depending on how stout.

For that kinda money, i'd just keep my stock block and buy Drums of Race gas. $20k will buy you a lot of race fuel.
