To premix with C16?
Is it a good idea to premix with C16 or does it have enough lubricant in it already? Also, any know how much premixing would drop the octane rating?

I'd like to know this as well. Possibly from someone who makes big power with c16/rotary. Aspec, you guys haven't put out any 500whp+ 7's have you? C16 seems pretty lubricated by itself and would be sufficient enough for drag racing.

No we only put out 300hp ones. We still haven't learned how to use our dyno unfortunately maybe someday though!!!!

I have been only using c16 fuel and i premix it still. As for power, i havent been on the dyno yet, but I am running around 24- 28 psi on my t78 turbo.

C-16 has a very high lead content which is very corrosive. I seen people experience stuck apex seals after using c-16 and letting the motor sit for sometime. Your spark plugs also suffer a lot not to mention anything that exhaust flows through. They get completly rusted out. Just check out the turbine wheel after it sits for sometime after using c-16.
My choice for pre-mixing would be some type of castor based oil. I normaly use RC-3 racing castor from VP fuels or Klotz BeNol racing castor oil.
