agreed with sarge.....
dont waste you time on octane boosters. Its a gimmick and nothing more.
the measurement of octane is just a way to prevent detonation...
if your engine doesnt ping/knock with 92/93 octane why try to run 100+, its just a waste of money
if your racing and spraying then yeah run a high octane fuel but not a so called boost!

Exactly^^^^^^
If you are not tuned for a higher octane you may as well piss in your gas tank.

If you read that link I posted, it says something like a 12-16 oz Bottle will raise your 92 octane rating to a whopping 92.3 rating..
Like Sarge said. altho, I suggest drinking a fifth of 151 Bacardi first, then pissing in your tank. I would probably be better then the bottled stuff on the shelf.

I think I remember TJ Wong telling me to NOT run anything like that, seeing as my car was tuned for a specific octane, changing that rating would in all likely hood make my car perform worse..

True story, I do put in my gas tank every now and then 90% alcohol.
Cheap and cleans out fuel system.
