Where can I find av gas around Calgary or Edmonton, and what is the average price per liter. Any help would be muchly appreciated.

If you are in Sundre G&L bulk in Olds sells it. Or you could try the Airdrie Airport I was talking to a guy named Leon there. His number is 1-403-818-3839. He's pretty good about it as long as you buy more than a few gallons at a time.

I'm not sure about the price as I haven't bought any in a couple of months.

Is your OCTANE light coming on on your M8? If I don't sell mine, I'll be running some Av next year as well.

No its not at the moment, but I will be turboing this sled over the summer, and for future reference I figured I would start early on find a supplier, as well a buddy of mine is looking to get some right away to test and tune his turbo...So your Octane light has been coming even when running premium?

You turbo that thing and I'm buying one of Rene's nytro setups. If it's our buddy testing the turbo hope it works or we will be playing with matches next time..:beer::d

Yeah moreso when it was new. The pipe/intake setup seemed to cure it for a bit, but it still came on a couple times this year. It gets annoying when the sled goes into retardation mode when you're clipping through trees and need full power.

buy doo :d

Not for the turbo application you don't. M8's been working great for awhile
Love to see an etech turbo and a turbo cat go at it for a couple daysbut in the end I'm thinkin if your serious about turbo there is only one choice Nytro MCX 2nd stage. I have seen them work for lots of K's with only reg oil changes. Think Rene's got 8000k on his.:beer::d

It's got me into some pretty sticky situations.... Seems like it always happens when I'm on ~45 degree slopes, usually near the top, and in no way ready to turn out. First time it happened I nearly pooped myself. Maxwell, I appreciate your advice but I need to sell mine first, and justify the $3000 separating the Etec from the Pro.
