Here's another interesting read, a comparison of octane boosters. Hopefully I can offset the balance of off-topic replies from mrnipple-nose, mrdesperate-for-attention himself:

The source was "Fast Fours Magazine" from 1999, which is Australian mag. So take it for what it's worth, some of the products mentioned probably aren't available in the US (unfortunately).

(By the way, mrphotoman, your cyber-bullying crap is what pisses me off. Not just to me, either. So once ya stop doing that to people, I'll take ya off my ignore list!)

 

Going the other way, please see my GENERAL SECTION post about alternative fuel source, thought that this might get others to start looking at a different point of view.
I have not learned how to post thread addresses YET, Enjoy Woody

 

tolulene is destructive to the seals used in the injectors... most aftermarket injectors are seal-less but the stock ones are not

they cause them to get brittle over time and eventually will fail. causing an injector to stick open, or even worse.. break. leaning out whatever cylinder it feeds

 

He will not listen to you, he wants to use it so let him.

Okay, you children play nice !!!

If you really wanna increase your octane level without "snake-oils" "octane-booster " etc, etc. HDDP posted a chart for mixing race gas with 91 octane to boost octane numbers. Takes out all the guess work and IMHO a lot cheaper dollar wise than the off shelve booster crap

Just my Dos Centavos

 

the off the shelf stuff is garbage, torco and klotz work and then you have race gas. I am fortunate enough to have a station 1 mile from my house that sells 100 octane but it is still cheaper to use the klotz and it is safe.

 

yea most octane boosters are total bs.
did a dyno test with one and the motor actually lost power, about 3hp and 5ft/lbs.. all other variables were the same

stick to torco... and if you want octane boosters.. buy race gas

 

Klotz is also a major manufacturer of race gas and sponsors pro racing all over the world, their octane booster is as effective as torco and you can get a gallon shipped for $60 if you look around.

It cracks me up to see kids with their hondas at the parts store wasting $20 on multiple bottles of the off the shelf ultra horsepower 6000 octane booster lmao.

 

hmm, i'll have to look into klotz
i have a vp dealer account so that also helps

the honda kids at those stores give us a bad name
i had a 550whp pump gas civic that was the ultimate sleeper and would outrun almost anything on the highway.. those neon light, big wing loving individuals should be taken out back and beaten with a garden hose

 

Oh I do not hate on any car unless it is riced, lmao. I had a 300whp tiburon that was a lot of fun. A few years back I had a big block corvette that was a blast as well.
