Idiot - who runs 87 octane with boost?
[right][snapback]231831[/snapback][/right]
who runs 87 at 22 psi?!?!?!
[right][snapback]231833[/snapback][/right]
Who the hell runs 22 psi ?! I mean yeah, almost 2 bar is cool but.. stock engine?
Anyone who has the money to build an engine to take 22 psi has the money to afford the 91 octane..
And agreed.. who runs boost with 87? Especially on a DSM?
Smack this guy really hard.. 22 psi, 87 octane, DSM.. Is there really ANY surprise to this?

uhhh you clearly have no idea what a mean motor the mitsu 4G63... from the factory there good till over 400HP. there is no need to build the motor untill you get into 30 PSI+ problem is the stock ECM wont add fuel above 22 or so
and 22 PSI really is penuts I see 20 on my buissness partners STOCK DSM with 94 octane and an exhast Every day on the way to work.... and it's a 15 yr old car...
Also a Properly set up Turbo car can run 87 it just dosn't advance the timing when it starts to knock...

You obviously own a dsm..
f***, fine, let's get into this..
I agree, the 4G63/93 ARE potent, good engines, HOWEVER they are very common to failing (63) via crank walk etc. Obviously 22 psi IS peanuts if it blew this guys engine, and I don't care if you know of a 20 psi DSM that's still stock.. It doesn't change the fact that they are prone to failing - there are of course quite a few DSM's out there that wont die with no notice, but there are way too many out there that are extremely unreliable.
Yes, a PROPERLY SET UP TURBO CAR, Hence the PROPERLY.. Since when are most street driven cars, that run 87, perfectly tuned 24/7/365? It's the day it flops that your engine pops.
Please don't tell me I don't know anything, I'm sure near everyone here will agree that high boost and low octane don't mix for daily driving reliability, especially when tuning isn't always 100% perfect.
