Cool High octane

As far as "race fuel" 100+unleaded is available but as above, the burn rate is longer (decreasing detonation but prolonging combustion). I have run a 104 unleaded SUNOCO fuel in my ga16de with no problems and it did have some more kick off of the line with this, but it was an oxygenated fuel with a certain percentage of oxygen added to it by volume. Somebody said that this was "cheating". Hey man if that's cheating your garrett turbo is a forefeit! It just helped keep the burn rate from sapping power as stated above, and made for a more complete combustion (leaner at WOT).
So, if i'm running 16BTDC on 92 what kinda timing should I run on oxygenated 104? (somebody will say just advance it until it pings and turn it back a notch, but, it will never ping, it's got a knock retard sensor right? I can't make it ping if I wanted to!).
On another note, Can I just slap a sunny front-clip onto my 1997 gaB14?
That would be soooo nice!
