I recently did some testing of C16 vs 93 octane on a 04 Cobra with light modifications. In the process of tuning I pushed the car to make max torque on both 93 octane and then on C16. Had some interesting results on this mild combo so I figured it would be a good topic for discussion. This isn't a pushrod motor but the same principals apply to our 5.0 motors. Give it a read if you aren't afraid to learn a bit.

Thanks guys. I have four cars right now with meth injection, ranging from 8psi, 13psi, 15psi, 28psi across three motor platforms (pushrod, 2v, 3v) and two methanol kits (AIS and Snow). Gathering info on them now, should be some interesting results.
