damn...i'm still hesitant to add in a Flex Fuel kit for my turbo setup. If I didn't have to buy injectors and a pump i woulda jumped on it already.

I've been trying Shell's Nitro+ fuel recently. Only one i know of is in Diamond Bar on Diamond Bar Blvd/Palomino and it's 3.83. Been pretty good but some corn juice would be solid.

As a chemist, I would only go Shell or Chevron . . . and I exclusively go Chevron but then again, I know some of the chemists at Chevron.

Can you tell the difference between the Nitro+ compare to normal Shell Premium? I haven't seen a shell that has it...

I usually get shell or chevron. Costco takes too darn long

Could be placebo but my crickets don't chirp as loud anymore lol

I really need to dive deep into my ecutek logs though. hard to really say if there's much difference right now because this damn weather shot my engine bay ambient temps through the roof and I'm getting some heat soak.

1. Search the forum it's not hard. Question has been asked before.

2. Post in the so-cal section and NOT HERE.

3. Search Yelp, google, etc look at the reviews.

4. DTM autobody.







We know who you ran into.

See you there!

Oh ok thanks was just wondering cause I hear the frs white pearl paint is hard to match.

The HPFP is noticeably quieter when a bottle of Techron is added to a tank...

Does it do anything? Well, it makes the HPFP quieter. Tried with and without it many times.
