Re: Re: Re: Re: 2005 MUSTANG GT
True they played with the timing on each run, but if you notice, they started at 31 degrees on each pull and then advanced more from there. So how is it that 31 degrees of advance on 94 octane produced more power than 87 octane on 36 degrees? As well as most of the other tests at 31 degrees?

if you read in that article they are advancing the timing with each pull also. THey call this flash timing when on the dyno. guys use this to bullshit the printout. you are both actually saying kind of the same thing. higher octane prevents detonation which increases horsepower, and with HOT ROD advancing the timing they are compensating for the allowance octane increase will allow in degrees of total timing. More timing without detonation= horsepower.

With the timing set conservatively at 31 degrees BTDC, the sturdy 360 surpassed the best 87-octane numbers by 2 hp and 5 lb-ft
100 Octane unleaded we began with the 31-degree setting to maintain consistency and to see if any noteworthy patterns emerged. The dyno video monitor flashed just over 400 hp
114 Octane we rang up our highest numbers yet at the 31-degree setting.
