I bought a 5 gallon (us) can of 112 (C12) race gas today. I looked in the owners manual to see the exact capacity of our gas tanks to calculate at what level the gas gage should be at when I dump in the C12 so that I end up with 100 octane. I am planning to try out the Stage 4 GTR ecu map tomorrow!
I calculated that with a 1/2 a tank of 92 octane (8.3 US Gallons) and 5 gallons of 112 octane will get me to 99.5 octane. Does this sound correct?
Does it matter that the C12 is LEADED?

DO NOT PUT LEADED GAS IN YOUR TURBO! Steve is 100% correct, you will destroy your cats and o2 sensors and that will result in your 996TT going into "safe" mode which kills all boost and requires a trip to the dealer. DONT DO IT!!!!!!!!!
