Re: Killed a first gen altima

SRT-Wannabe, I'm not trying to be an asshole, I'm just trying to help you out. The fact of the matter is that running higher octane, or octane booster will have absolutely no effect on your car. It will NOT gain HP, it will NOT make it faster, it will NOT restore lost HP from engine age and it will NOT make your engine more responsive.

These are all things that you said it did in your previous posts and it does none of those things. Especially on a Neon with an average compression ratio and retarded timing. I can quote you if you wish:

You’re experiencing the placebo effect.

^^
its true, running higher octane will probably make your cats dirtier, experience worse gas mileage, and possibly some power loss.

Re: Killed a first gen altima

Ok, I accept that. Polygon, I never thought you were an asshole, if fact, I've never felt like you've ever tried to be a prick to me. I think you're cool in my book. And thanks TQT, I never knew that, thanks for the help to the ones that helped me. I accept help, I don't take insults. I'm still learning.

I made the same mistake with my first car, a 1984 Dodge Daytona TBI. Wasted a lot of money on 91 octane until someone set me straight.

I even said it. Octane booster doesn't give your car the hp increase that people gullibly believe. This stuff only helps your car be a LITTLE more responsive, doesn't make your car fucking super fast to keep up with turbo-charged engines or the smallest V-8s on the market. What you or SupaMan98T don't understand, is that I'm just a guy who's fucking broke, and do not have money coming out of my ass to do any extreme upgrades to my car, I only race cuz it's fun. Fucking kill-joys like you think you're so much above ordinary people that you just shoot down anything they fucking say. I don't believe after beating some half-assed driver behind the wheel of an altima I should have lost to, I think I can beat any one of them now, and that's not even the fucking case. I'm just a mellow guy that just wants to have fun, wheter the fucking fact I win or lose, doesn't fucking matter to me. Sure, I don't like to lose that much, but when I'm beat, I know I'm beat. Shit, I'm starting to get a little angry about this. Thank you very fucking much for ruining my mood tonight.
your story is BS and neons suck.....oh by the way the "F-word" was used eight times in this statement......
