Re: Fuel?

regular, anything higher is just wasting your money on a stock non-turbo rotary

Re: Fuel?

What type of fuel should I use in a turbo 2?

I figured Id ask in this thread rather then waste a new thread and get flamed for this question.

Re: Fuel?

mazda won the lemans with 87 octane fuel, if im not mistaken, this was with an N/A car.
read the user manual and use the suggested octane, otherwise the timing could be fucked up

mcs, read the thread.

N/A RX7s use 87 octane.

turbo RX7s use 91+ octane.

Re: Fuel?

ad a 3 gallons of toluene to your tank of gas if you have a t2 it will raise your oct rating to 104. thoes octane boosters you buy in th e store will only raise your rating a few points like from 91 to 91.4
in the 80 the formula cars were running 80 % toluene. they had 1.5L turbocharged engines that produced 1500 hp. running 70 lbs of boost. think im full of shit do some research on exotic fules
