    Will I need one? I need some opinions. At what point will a 2.5" mandrel bent ss Dp become a restriction in a stock header car with a 3" exhaust after the DP? Engine/Turbo combo is basically stock now but figure something like ta-61 with upgraded inj at some point in the future...

    Leaded Race Fuel

    The only gas station (that I know of) in my area that sells high octane fuel only carries Cam2 110 leaded. This is by far the most convenient way for me to boost my octane level up a bit. I have no cat on my car since it is a 1965, but will it hurt my o2 sensors to run 1/2 tank of this mixed...
