If thats all the mods you have you dont need to run c-16. The only mod needed to run c-16 is a tune. 100 oct is your better choice

c16 isn't going to do anything for you unless you have your car tuned to take advantage of the extra detonation resistance that c16 offers.

With the minimal mods you have just get tuned for E85. You will net the same power and save a **** load of money.

With your mods, I bet you'd make more power if you re-tuned with Q16 rather than C16.

Well the higher the octane content, the slower the burn in the combustion chamber so it would be safe to say you could lose power going to that high of a octane without tuning....

C16 is 100% gasoline as opposed to typical 91/93 pump gas which is 90% gasoline, 10% ethanaol.
So, technically speaking, the car will run a tad richer on C16 than on E10, and will of course be knock resistant... you may gain 10whp or so with no changes at all.
But leaded fuel is not good for O2 sensors or cats, so it's hardly worth the $12/gallon unless you get tuned for it, like everyone else said.

You will be richer because C16 is a heavier fuel. You need to pull fuel out of a pump gas map.
Q16 is less prone to detonation, but will not make more power then C16 on a stock setup. Also Q16 tune requires more fuel (I think 10-20% more then pump). You will run lean from your pump gas map. You will not be able to run Q16 on a stock injector.
Q16 is a PIA to tune. Just a FYI C16 is much more tuner friendly.
