piss off!
if you read the offical bp site they say it's not allowed to be used in certain race categories, F1 being one of them ;)
it's a good bit of kit but it's aimed at the race and track sort of people rather thanjoe pubic
C14 or C16 is both better and cheaper!
Yeah they sell that just down the road from me. No benefit to me, but my Vx220 owning mate was raving about it!
These hand-crafted products always sell for a premium.
How exactly one hand-makes petrol I have no idea.
Burgerman waffled thus:
Not unleaded though
No I didnt think of that. None of my bikes that used the stuff were very envoiromentally freindly anyway. One was draw through T4 with very lumpy cam and it ticked over (if you can call that angry uneven crackle a tickover) so "wet" with fuel that a puddle of unburned fuel used to gather alongside the short banana pipe on the floor at the lights. Overun consisted of yellow flames, full power left a haze of brown smoke and unburned fuel. But it made 300 bhp from one litre without injection or intercooler. Largely because the boost could go so high with that octane.
Add methanol. that increases the octane but needs bigger fuel jets. Or add propane because that adds octane pretty well. Dont wory it stays in the petrol pretty well.
perhaps they use their hands?
I knew at a guy at uni that ran an R5 turbo on Kerosene - no idea how cool that is, but it made 390bhp on the rollers, from a 1.4, carbed pushrod engine...
Well if you add 2 percent kero or diesel to a petrol tank your engine would pink and ping and detonate horribly . So what you are saying is impossible as even without any boost its unlikely it would even fire with neat fuel. And if it did it would barely run and misfire or detonate even at idle.
Even in a diesel engine you can destroy it fast by firing these fuels into the intake. Basically you will run over the crankshaft...
What you are saying is immposible. And 390bhp is extremely unlikely from one of those engines too... Even on a fuel it would run on. I think he was winding you up!

Little man, with a very small hammer cracking the hydrocarbons into littler pieces.
I'm sure it was Kerosene - but it was probably something else :-)
He would need a big magnifying glass and some tweezers.
I was gonna post the link to the dyno print out for you get mad at - but I can't find it, so I'm going back to the pub instead :-)
Depends how small the little man is ;)
Exactley. And he is so small, he finds the minimum wage massive
