Sunoco Max Nos
Tell me what you guys know about this fuel.

I have the chance to buy it for $582 a barrel which is a significant savings over C 16.
It is rated at 113 motor, 119 research, 116 antiknock. It is leaded.

Sean,
Its still ~$120/ barrel more than MS-103. But that is a good price for that octane level.
Does your new setup benefit from octane greater than 100 (antiknock)? If it does, of course I would get it. I would try to get less than a barrel initially to try. You obviously have taken the cats/02 sensors off...?

No cats o2's correct.
My car runs like crap on pump, even at 1.1 bars. w/ 5 gallons of C 16 mixed w/ 3 or so gallons of pump at 1.4 bars she is a monster.
How much should I pay for the Sunoco 104?

I should also mention that my car was tuned for VP C 16...runs great on it.
The Sunoco is supposed to be very similar to C 16 and is cheaper and that is why I am interested.
Today I had to drive nearly an hour just to get a shot at a couple of hiughway pulls and that caused me to think that I would like to get a better price.
Also, since oil/gas is half the price it was 4 months ago and VP refuses to lower their prices I would like to consider the competition. When oil was 147 a barrel and gas was $4 I didn't mind paying $12 for the VP. Now that is too much, IMO.

Sean's car is insanely fast. I've never been in a car that pulls like that. Absolutely weak *** sound though 
. Sounds like my Accord or worse at idle and low RPM. Get some motor mounts Sean.
