Re: Found octane booster that works
NOS octane booster raises octane 60 octane points, or 6 octane. It will bring 93 up to 99 octane.
Deal with it.

Are Torco or Klotz any good?
Re: Found octane booster that works
Klotz is always good.
(that's my last name, if you're unaware)

so your family made an octane booster?
Re: Found octane booster that works
This man speaks the truth. Nos does work. Run it every fillup.
Re: Found octane booster that works
need to find that in CA lol
Re: Found octane booster that works
NOS, Torco, and Lucas brand octane boosters all use MMT. They work and work well. They don't hurt anything 'internally' either. MMT is a very effective octane booster. I got a killer deal on a case of Lucas and am using it in the Mustang currently for piece of mind.
Besides MMT based stuff, Xylene/Toulene added to gasoline works great as an 'octane booster', as Xylene is around 116 octane and Toulene 114 if I remember correctly. Adding a gallon of either to 3-5 gallons of 93 dramatically raises the knock resistance.
Used both personally on previous and current cars. Happy with both results. Xylene/Toulene is a bit on the expensive side, but if you need high octane in a pinch and there's a Home Depot near by it works. :D

You can find xylene but not toluene you have to go to a specialty paint store for that

Exactly what I'm thinking, sounds like wasted money.
Re: Found octane booster that works
Ya, maybe once in awhile or if you're going to the track, but every fill up is pretty extensive.

Buy less gas? Then buy OB

Toulene's available at every hardware store around here. Maybe AZ laws are different. Xylene is better anyway, so who cares? Either one will work.
