My milling cuts 87 was fastest followed by VP. 90 marine was next and 93 was slowest. The info is posted in this thread if someone cares to find it. It was 3'x1'oak squared with 404 chain on my 046.
What were the timed differences with the 550xp?

I don't remember. 10% slower from 93 to 110 turbo blue.
The timed difference doesnt really matter to me . Right now I wanna try different octanes to see the difference in wash patterns. Im thinkin lower octanes will produce more solid covered crowns with less apparent wash patterns

I just mixed some red armor at 43:1 to try out. How long have you been running it?
How do you like it?
ran it for 2 yrs prior before it got expensive but i found a dealer who is selling it for a better price. it has sweet smell when burning mixed with gas it is red in color i like it a lot just it can be hard to find.
BTW this is 10x better than ultra when it comes odor and cleaning ability i got buddys doing lawncare and they run this in there 4 mix engines and they tell me it is cleaning burning than the other and the smell is pleasant.
