Which VP race fuel would you recommend? Just looking for max power. Not worried about AMA legal or class specifics. I heard some of the oxygenated fuels work good. Will I need to have a map made for just this fuel. I cant afford to run all the time. Also wondering if the leaded fuel will screw up catalytic converter on the 04? If so I will remove. Any help appreciated. Also some of the octance ratings seem low but at my altitude we can run lower octane without problems of detonation.ie MR9

Not only that, some types are high corrosive to the tank.
not only the tank but also the internal parts if left unuse or left for storage for short time.

Or if you don't care:

Ultimate-4, which is very similar to Nutec. Just make sure you drain the tank and carbs/fi when you're not using the bike... EVIL stuff.

This is what we use on the GSXR1000 racebike I wrench on. Dyno proven +5hp at the tire. (edit for those who are inclined to call bs: No I don't have the printouts, it's not my bike so honestly, I don't really care all that much)

Ill agree. With a custoemr map on the race R6 I am getting approx 4 more ponies at the rear. Runs about 8 bucks a gallon here in CO though
