fun with c16



Yeah, I went and bought some 116 octane gas a while back just to see if it 
would make any difference on my 2.0 16v.  It was like $40 for 5 gallons.  I 
never ended up using it until today...after the normal fillup with Chevron 
91 octane I was getting some crazy pinging under load.  So I figured I would 
see what happened when I dumped a gallon of that stuff in there.  There was 
only like 5 gallons of regular gas in there.  And man oh man, what a 
difference!  When ambient temps are lower (55-60 deg), it pulls like mad!  
The difference is less at higher temps but definitely still there.  Part 
throttle in 2nd and 3rd OWNZ.
