    Default Race Gas

    How will Q16 (116oct oxygen fuel) effect the injectors and VE table? Also I have a FAST WB setup in the car, will the WB even work on race gas at all?

    Its stoich from looking around is 13.43:1 so you would need 5.7% more fuel in your VE table over E10 93-octane

    Should work ok if there is no lead in the fuel. If there is lead, then the WB wont live so long.

    Its leaded fuel. I heard they make WB for race gas.

    As Gameover mentions, leaded simply reduces the life. 1/5 or worse of unleaded use.

    Cool, Thanks guys. What A/F do I need to shoot for at idle and WOT? This is a racecar.

    There should be ZERO change to the VE tables or injector flow calculations when changing fuel specs. All you have to do is change the stoich point scalar/table and perhaps revisit the timing tables.
