Abstract: This paper aims to analyze the differences in power performance of a turbocharged engine in the case of fueling with two types of gasoline, regular and premium. Generally, on turbocharged gasoline engines higher octane fuels are typically recommended. A gasoline with higher octane number, typically, will boost performance in the case of supercharged or turbocharged engines, considering and adequate engine’s mapping, too. Nowadays, the oxygenated compounds are used to increase the octane number, ethanol being one of them, as a renewable source of energy. Thus, the gasoline characteristics are directly related to the power and environmental performance of the engine.
