Why is 1.3bar "not serious" with a 930 engine? The "safe" boost pressure for a 930 engine is not a fixed value. Many variables affect this.

Your results at 1.1bar are pretty similar to what we got at 1.1bar on 91-octane pump gas.
Yes race fuel is >100-octane, in france, we have 95/98-octane at filling stations.

I know that boost pressure limit depend on temperatures, AFR, advanced ignition... but i think up to 1.2bar boost, air engine is reliable, and with 1.4bar from 4500 to 6700rpm, it's difficult to be knockless and with correct temperatures.
