Just to test and try not expecting much. I actually felt a difference. Car seems to want to pull harder but peak psi under full load doesn't change. Same amount of boost.

In a tuned car you should see the gains for sure.
Yeah on another non-Porsche car of mine i had a protune done at Cobb for two maps: regular pump 91 and with 91 plus a bottle of the Torco. With the Torco the car made another 20 wheel hp and 30 tq from what I recall.

Don't you HAVE to have a tune in order to see gains from additives or race gas?

If your computer is holding back timing you will get more. Otherwise yah you would need to tune for it.

Our cars are targeting agressive timing from factory, so even on a stock car will see some gains but not significant.

On tuned cars, yes a race tune would be great, 100octane tune would be ok so the gains from agressive timing will be seen and will be significant enough to be felt

The best result I see is from cars with adjustable boost controllers as torco will allow to run way more advance but also boost, someone will have to find the sweet combo for max power

I gained 300+ hp (three hundred) using torco only, raising advance by 4-6 degrees and also boost by like 0.4-0.5 bar on a built 3.8 and gtx30s
