mtbe, hc05

[tim gooding]

Hi all-
 
Our team runs the WERA National Endurance series on a Yamaha YZF 600.
We've never had pre-ignition problems with the stock black box, and
~12.5:1 static compression ratio. We use 93 pump gas because its
cheap(you burn a lot of gas endurance racing). I am curious if this mtbe
stuff from the octane boost thread can give you a measureable power
increase because it is "oxygenated". Powermist sells something for
$16ish a gallon which is not practical here. If this stuff causes
cancer, is it the sort of thing where you shouldn't be in the same
county, or use gloves and a respirator when rejetting, or what?
 
On another topic, I'm curious about using a Motorola 68hc05 chip in a
programmable ignition. Should I look at the hc11 or the 332 instead? The
hc05 has input and output capture and compare features that seem useful,
but that chip doesn't show up in automotive discussions.
