[QUOTE="Glamisfan, post: 1196982, member: 24883"] This motor is 450 hp from 3.5 liters. That equals 128.57hp/liter. And it’s boosted. That equals a high performance engine. No different then a 60’s muscle car with 12:1 compression. Both engines need high octane to prevent detonation. The 60’s muscle car could only depend on octane to prevent detonation. But today’s computer controlled motors can pull timing after it detects detonation to prevent further detonation and the eventual hole in the piston or blown out ring land. I personally would rather have higher octane and less detonation to start with. Again.........this is a high performance engine. [/QUOTE]
