I will be running standard unleaded in my dohc.
The optimax apparantly causes probs blocking the injectors and stuff. |

Don't touch LRP, absolute shite. Will foul your plugs and it will run like shit when cold.
As for the Optimax Soop, we can't get it here in SA. I'm running 10.8:1 comp and have no pinging probs with synergy 8000. Bp 98 isnt as good. I add a lil octane booster fori guess piece of mind but it's probably bullshit stuff anyways.
When i run avgas i change the heat range of the plug from a 6 to a 7. A slightly colder plug.
So in short, get it dynoed and run synergy 8000.
