Race Fuel Made My Car INSANE!

[@Coldvegas]

Just pouring that amount of race fuel doesn’t bring you up to 105 octane. It will probably bring it up not even 1 octane depending on how much fuel is already in your car.

[@Cereal_Killr]

in fact in alot of cases it can reduce power unless you have tuned timing or have the ECU tuned to use the extra octane.

[@desenvolvimentoprofissiona6738]

Here in Brazil we use etanol, 102 octanes in normal pump gas. If we use some octane booster it's not that hard to get something like 115octanes. Also, ethanol makes the engine "less hot" compared to normal or premium gas, but the disadvantage is that engine drinks a bit more fuel. The smell is actually nice too compared to gas.

[@King__kon]

could be different readings of octane making them the same just looking different like how uk is to the us. uk has higher numbers than the us but we use the same thing. in the us shell is one of they best places to get premium gas because of the additives they use and how much they use.

Great sound! I love how your parents support you even recording the videos 😅 it appears they really enjoy cars as we do

[@collectingms3803]

Thank you! Yes they're awesome and we always have fun recording the videos together. And yes the do enjoy cars a lot. Installed almost all my mods with Darryl. I'm happy you enjoyed!

Pops was like..."yeah sounds like youve got 2 extra cylinders like you had shouldve gotten to begin with"

[@MRmotorworkz]

Damn! This sounds intense I can only imagine it in-person!

Hey bro! Yeah it was pretty crazy in person haha - one of the best car memories for sure

[@Mr_Jaloliddin]

Great emotions, cool car and a positive grandpa there :D Thanks for the video man.

[@joshchapman7462]

Honestly these videos are incredible! Your M2 is unbelievable i have a BMW M235i the N55 is such an incredible engine. Daryl makes these videos i love that

[@collectingms3803]

Thank you bro! I'm really happy you're enjoying them. It really is an amazing engine and I can only imagine how crazy the kick you get with BMW's AWD is

@@collectingms3803 i’d like to know that feeling too but i’m in the UK they only have RWD M light cars soo yeh similar experience, needs a LSD coz its sooo slippy! Getting the exhaust done this Friday and i’m soo pumped for that!

[@collectingms3803]

@@joshchapman7462 Ah gotcha gotcha. I never knew the M240i RWD didn't come with an LSD from factory. Really interesting to know. I'm excited for you bro! Literally all the N55 exhausts sound amazing so I'm sure you're gonna love it!

Pops so chill wtf

[@TheHustlers1]

It won’t make your car faster, in fact using 105 octane could actually slow it down. High octane fuel is designed to resist "knocking" because it is high octane fuel for engines with very high compression such as super tuned cars. However, if your engine isn’t tuned for it, like your BMW M2 (which does best on 91 or 93), the fuel can’t be fully burned, resulting in weaker performance. High octane by itself doesn’t make power, it only works if the engine is designed to use it.

[@lucassummers687]

Great content, really enjoying it! I run my M2 on 102 Octane all the time (German Aral Ultimate Pump Gas) Keep the videos coming!

[@collectingms3803]

Thank you bro! I'm really happy you're enjoying them. That must be awesome! You've got access to the unrestricted parts of the autobahn as well? I'd love to drive there one day

are you cat-less? was the fuel leaded or unleaded?

[@q3aryoko]

Cool vid, i have a M2, Manual 6 speed. Dinan, Fabspeed exhaust, etc.. I never ventured to put racing fuel in it because I didn't want to blow it up LOL. Well, bought a Ferrari a few months ago; my M2 isn't as exciting as it used to be obviously....I think now i might try it after watching this vid. Great work overall...though i'd say looks like shifting quite late on take off 1st and 2nd gear...any reason for that?

[@lotuselansteve]

Hardly an insane improvement. Not at all surprised that you experienced a minimal improvement between USA pump gas and race gas, as your pump gas is rubbish. Over here in the UK we can get 99 octane fuel from most gas stations so the difference would be even less than what you found. Also, that isn't race gas, that is just an octane booster. BIG difference.

[@bobbycone2]

The number system between US and UK are different so the 91 in the US is actually pretty close to the same as the 99 in UK.

[@willthetrill4849]

If you really want to, you should convert that car to run on compressed natural gas. Believe it or not but CNG has an octane rating of 130. No or has done this to their high performance car. You’ll be the first one to ever do something like this

[@model_building_fan7708]

91 octane is the same as 98 in europ so its actually not a big difference

[@nasurdan]

I click to see the old mans reaction

[@adem335i8]

Did you measure 100-200kmh times?

[@kain383]

Not real race fuel. And the 2nd test was in the evening with lower temp.

Check your spark plugs I guarantee they’re orange do not use the stuff
