Would a wastgate make any noises if it were going bad?
This bothered me, running 92 octane and a bottle of octane booster does not even out at around 100-104 octane. A bottle of octane booster only adds additional points so if you're running 92 octane + octane booster = 92.5 or something like that only.

Now if you went half tank of 92 and half tank of C16 then you're looking at high 90s octane.
