On my Audi I can run the same boostlevels, timing advance, with similar correction factors and knockvalues as provided by logs with Torco as I would with Sunoco 104 which I use on occassion.
However, you will get orange plugs. I used the Audi as a example because I have the abilty to log everything and some ,from head to toe. Hope that helps.

So it works (albeit with a lot of lead)?

If you are below the level of octane necessary on both race and Torco, you wll be fine.
You wll be smart not to run high boost on your 951 (wth its restrcve turbine housing and inherant high egt's) with magic fuel.
But I thnk you should choose your adviser carefully in this thread, and stick with him.

What would be the max boost level for me at 104 octane unleaded race gas from VHP or Torco (real race)? I'd rather not do home brew gas.
My mods include Vitesse Stage III turbo, Lindsey MAF, Vitesse chips, Delphi 55lb injectors, stock fuel pump, Lindsey Dual Port waste gate, Cometic MLS head gasket, reworked head (nothing special 5 angle valve job), Lindsey Steam relief kit, NGK (your plug and temp range of choice), MSD coil (not the fancy one, OEM replacement), Fabspeed 3 inch exhaust (I run the race cat because of the noise), UEGO wideband, Black **** MBC, and adjustable fuel pressure regulator.
I run 14psi now with no knock that I am aware of and about 11.5:1 on the wideband with room to enrichen much more.
Please advise me

Anyone have a car to destroy to prove if this works?

I agree if I would crank the boost /timing max I would only use a mix of 104/C16 or 104/Toluene.
