Thread: Found octane booster that works

So i did a WOT the other day in cold weather, and i got a 5* KR spike during my pull at 8.5 psi

Went to autozone got the NOS Racing formula octane booster with Nitro Methane. Did the same WOT to 105mph with a peak of 9.2 psi with 0* of KR

Just a FYI, believe it or not, just thought i would give people a heads up. I will be on e85 by spring and wont need this.

ummm.... trollsauce?

Yeah.

Super awesome NOSboosterrocketfuel crap gives you 7 additive points.

Which in octane terms, turns your 93 into 93.7 octane.

With all them mods your seeing 5* KR at 8.5 psi on a 97? What size pulley are you running and what octane fuel were you running? I have a 97 with a ported Gen3, 3.4 pulley, powerlog, 2.5 catless DP, and a stock tune and rarely see anything over 6.3* KR at WOT I only run 93 octane. Not saying anything bad its just interesting to see this, Ill have to try this product see what happens because I get way to much KR. I need to get my headers on and my GenV with a good tune.

He won't ever get a real tune.

Been telling him that for probably over a year now

xylene is a mans octane booster...

correction, i will have that "real" tune when i get my 65# injectors, N* tb w/LQ4, LS7 lifters, 2.8 pulley(if i see no knock), and e85

getting it tuned locally with hptuners

also putting in TEP clutch packs, zzp 2500 stall converter, 300m, and 7/8 chain

i run a 3.25" pulley, i normally have no KR. But the colder weather is giving me higher boost.

^^Welcome to science.

Just because it doesn't knock doesn't mean the tune is in check, especially with your mod list.

Tornado inserts for your intake work too.

im getting the tune you have been hounding me about. you should be happy. local car club is doing 30$ dyno runs(2 for 30$) May do it for number before and after e85 tune

xylene doesn harm your internals if you use it right...

I have an inline 3 of those. Better gas mileage Fo Sho.
i run 12's

Xylene aint cheap either.

False knock sucks

false knock is the new boost stacking.
