I am goin to the track this weekend and i was wonndering if it would hurt to mix 100 octane gas and 93 octane in my car with stock injectors. i was gunna put like 3 gallons of 100 and 4 gallons of 93. I was also wondering how much PSI will a stock N/A 3000gt SL motor hold safely?

why are you running higher octane? you have a N/A automatic, changing octane isn't going to do anything for you. Why do you want to know about PSI?

Twizted 3kgt is right, if you have a N/A stock 3000GT then you don't have turbo's, or are you wondering how much you could run through it if you did turbo it?

And yes if you are N/A then the 100 octane fuel is not needed, you would be wasting money on it.

8psi probably, I dont think that 100 octane would clean it. Do N/A's have a knock sensor and timing control? if they do, then more octane would equal more power for him...

Yep, that is probably about right, because N/A's have a higher 10:1 compression ratio you are going to be pretty limited to what you can push through it.

They have timing control, but it won't advance the timing past the stock timing maps. It only retards the timing if there is knock to a lower timing map. Anything above 93 octane and you will just be losing power.

When everything else is the same, More octane = Less power
