I agree with the other guys on this higher octane does not equate necessarily to higher hp, but it does a great job with engine performance. When i first got my s13, i quickly exchanged the air filter for a K&N high flow flat filter, put in some Ngk Iridium IX plugs and wires, changed out the old oil for some good old Mobil 1 5W and added a crucial K&N oil filter. Sure, it may not sound like much, but performance wise the car sure as hell ran a whole lot better, and it will continue to until i finally put in the SR20(still perfecting that in the shop). Riot, I know you may not be interested in doing anything to that engine or plan on keeping it, but I would suggest trying some of the same maintenance mods as i stated above, feel the change in the KA's performance. There is a lot of untapped potential in that engine, and once I pull mine out for the swap, I plan on bulletproofing it, port and polishing it and the turbocharging it just to find out what it can do. Then I plan to plant it into another s13 to see how it can hang with my SR20...Sounds like fun don't it?
