[QUOTE="Black Cobra '99, post: 16059992, member: 138833"] The limitation on fuel comes down to knock, the higher the octane the more resistance to knock. So, if you have a knock sensor you may be able to push those numbers around but on older cars 07-09 we have no idea. Not sure if all tuners do this but on a dyno you can use a knock sensor and tune accordingly. Fortunately there is knock monitors like J&S vampire, and to me its worth its weight in gold. While boost also increases the chances of knock, engine internals can let go because of boost alone. So a built motor will not destroy itself but its still susceptible to knock. [/QUOTE]
