U4.4 would be my guess. Or whatever has the highest oxygen content. How much compression are you running? Pump gas engines make less power on excessive octane when the fuels are non-oxygenated.

Mix some nitro in there if want her to really go. But it is highly corrosive, and when they blow... They really blow

I have always had great luck with the VP 110 or C12… depending on if it’s modified. I can tell a difference even on non modified but you could get away with 50/50 premium if non ethanol as in my experience ethanol fuels are inconsistent in two strokes. I apologize but I don’t have experience with the others.

Twisted development suggested VPR on my kids 250sx motor build and he loved it LOL

In a well maintained 2007 RM125, I’m enjoying REALLY good performance and engine life with T2 cut down to 50:1 with Pro6 (my T2 comes on a drum at 40:1; so, I think it out to 50:1).
Here’s the funny part: one day, all I had to “thin my T2” out was a 15 gal drum of Pro6…
It ran so good I was waiting for it to blow up! 😂

That was 2021 and I’m still running the same “mix” a year and a half later.

I would give U4 a shot; but, I’d do a very careful “plug check”.

VPR unless you have the money for MRX02. 30:1 or more oil.

VPR is pretty much T2 not mixed. Its not super expensive and works great in 2 strokes.

Keep in mind too, oxygenated fuels do not last long. The good go fast juice that is mixed in the fuel evaporates relatively quick. So if you buy it, plan to use it.

100LL is a safe long lasting fuel.
It will not make any power over pump gas.

I currently am using 100LL mixed with pump 93 (e10) 50/50 for my two strokes. It’s the most cost effective for me currently.

T2 / VPR or VP113 will make more power.

U4.4 will make even more!
Beyond that prices go up.

If it’s a stock motor I would say T2. Otherwise ask your engine builder and not a bunch of vitards. That’s the opinion that matters most.

That being said if you are on a stock motor your money is better spent on clutches and tires than something like C12 or 110. Good pump gas can be found, I have a stand-alone 93 non ethanol pump near me and it is great. If you can’t seem to find good consistent non ethanol pump gas I would say T2 is your best bet. Just don’t make the mistake of running high octane fuel in a stock engine that is designed around 93 octane pump gas.


Just keep in mind to get the most out of any of these high octane race fuels you need to have a motor built around it. Otherwise it’s pointless.

We are VP dealers and VPR will work, customers that have stock 2 and 4 strokes can use the same fuel. T2 if the bike is stock. If you have any engine work done run C12. No need for C12 if bike is stock.

You should ask you builder, I would think you would need at least C12!

U4.4 if it will be high compression. It is not cheap, but it smells like heaven.

U4.4
Q16

VP 110 + Klotz Nitro additive.

Who has tried these
The first question I have is what mods have been done to the bike? Has the ignition been re-programmed? Until there is a base line, the recommendations are baseless.

U4.4 is a night and day difference over c12 in my modded bikes. Worth the extra money to me

Just curious why make it 50:1 instead of 40:1?

Adding more gas to the pre mix.

Yes 100LL doesn’t make more power in itself, but it does allow higher compression ratios and more aggressive combustion chamber shaping, which in turn produces more power.
100LL is also a comparatively cheaper alternative fuel that offers detonation protection, easy jetting and long bearing and piston life.
For the average Joe it’s easily one of the best fuel options for a two stroke motocross bike.

No one has tried Q16 out? It has more oxygen and octane than 4.4

Pretty much just 93 or 94 pump gas with my YZ250. It doesn't ping and it can go faster than I can Smile

Q16 is for turbo cars! People need to understand their compression ratio and ignition for the right fuel

I've used Q16 for high compression nitrous motors, M1 for turbo stuff....
