You don`t use the VP109 (?), it`s the most popular here, pretty good on octane and added oxygen

WOW!!

Since the price of Q16 dropped, I've switched a lot of "street/strip" nitrous bikes over.  Typically, 3-4% increase over C16 ... just a tad better than pump.  On the motor side of things, Q16 likes a couple of tenths AFR leaner than pump... ~13.3:1..but Q16 requires around 8-9% more fuel than C16.

I actually did a comparison between several race fuels and E85 on my Busa back when I first did the switch.  I used some earlier pulls with 93 Pump, VP Import, C16; and then fresh pulls with MR12, MRX01, and E85.  Here is what I got. Each of the results were duplicated and retuned for the fuel, if just at 100% throttle above 8K RPM.  Just as note, I have since "detuned" my motor to tolerate bigger shots of nitrous and it now makes around 15 wHP less.

MR12 : 210
E85 : 208
MRX01 : 206
Pump 93 : 202
C16 : 199
Import : 197

Good stuff there....

Interesting, thankyou,,

What hp did she go with Methanol ?,,

Did the Methanol have a small Acetone content (maybe 3-5%) ?,,
