OK, engine hop up only good for 10-20 HP.

I just now redid my throttle cable so that the secondaries actually open when you floor the gas pedel. I thought that would double my horsepower but I was wrong. My seat of pants dynomometer says, ten, maybe twenty horse power. I was a little dissapointed because I do think high compression heads really do add horsepower despite what people may tell you. BUt then I filled up today with regular and felt lots better. Having to buy a bottle of octane boost every tank is a pain in the butt. Regular gas sells for less than premium too. So not having neck snapping performance is ok. Maybe once my motor is no longer under warrenty I will put the old heads back on. But then I will have to start buying octane boost again. What a quandry.
