How do you like it? How much are you paying? How does it spool for you? Thanks Brian

C-16 is Bad to the Bone!! Anything over 26psi in my buick I run the stuff, But there is really no need for running it on lower boost settings I run some good B-33 or anything 112+ ifI am staying under 25 or so,but when shes set on kill (116 all the way
P.S Rember you can over (octane)a car aswell..

Thanks guys! Boost will be in the 25+ range 24/7 this summer! In with the race chip and VP C16 and hello 10's.

never seen even a degree of knock with it, even at 28#'s and race timing.

We call it 'Liquid Gold' up here. Last year it was $13.90@us gal, this year $16.10!!! I get thumb prints on my ankles every time I go see the dealer, but there is no substitute! 25+psi@30° timing last year = zero knock.
HTH

C-16 is the fuel to have when tuned for "kill"

At the Vegas event in November, I got a little knock with C-16 (2*) but that was at 32psi boost and a 108 chip

I buy it by the 55 gal. drum.. Bout $5.00 a gallon.
I also have a source for a "special" blend. 114 NO LEAD!!
This sh!t will make you kids born naked, your nasal tissues reticulate, your hair fall out [except for Cairns]!!!!
Why would ANYONE even THINK of less than 35PSI???

 

[azgn]

maybe you moonshiners are a little behind the time, but our 116 is running close to $8.00 per....55 gal or not... (this would be Sunoco Maximol, but VP is the same)

a nice alternative is the 112 at $5.60 (what am I saying??)

hit me again, please

Exactly! If Chuck is paying $5.00 per gallon someone is putting 92 octane in his drum.

 

[Chuck Leeper]

116???

My "octane" HAS to be a bit low just to justify messin w/ these damn turbo BUICKZZZZ.
Maybe it is $6.00
Some folks fool w/ it and all their hair fallz out.

I pay $7.00 a gal. at my local oil supply store, that's VP-c-16. That stuff works great too!!! I don't think the Sunoco brand is the same, it seems like it(Sunoco) burns my o2 sensors up quicker?? I got some knock with that c-16 when i tried to run 27psi boost last year and my FP vacumn line blew off my friend in the stands said it sounded like i was popping pop corn Well the engine held together, maybe i can blow it up this year Frank

 

[Chuck Leeper]

Line blew off

SHAME ON YOU, FRANK!! That's exactly why I invented the zip ties back in 55. I just knew I'd be a millionaire selling them to BUICK guys!

 

[Mile Hi GN]

C-16 rocks. I paid $6 a gallon last year, still a lot cheaper than a new motor.

Flat Footed at the big end and no knock.

 

[Sydwyndr]

Sonoco Maximal works very well around here. Car ran 7.04 @ 98mph with 25 psi and 28.5 deg timing with no knock. can get for around $5.60 a gallon, love it

 

[frankg]

Chuck the bad thing is I had one on there, i guess it needed 2 Frank

Paid $410 for a 55 gallon drum up here at Angelucci's. The best price I have heard of thru the grapevine is $380.00.

When you need it, you'll pay whatever it costs.


10.37 @128.3 MPH, running at 28 psi and 26 deg of advance, stock irons. C-16 is it in my book.
