What brand octane booster you using? Looking for some good octane booster to run daily in my turbo ta. 100 octane is over 5 a gallon pretty expensive. Do you guys recommend octane booster or a gallon or so of 100 and fill the rest 91?

You can also mix Zylene and / or Toulene into your gas. I think it's available at Home Depot. It's the active ingrediant in paint thinner I think. Research it, it works very well as both an octane booster and increases your fuel economy.

Torco accelerator here...2 quarts to bou 7-8 gallons 93..I bought it in a 5 gal pail and is much cheaper this way...since this is my play toy ride the little extra cost is worth it to me...
ran 20psi on the dyno with 20 deg timing on this mix at 800.6 rwhp...Now on the stret or track I am going to limit to abou 17-18 psi on this mix due to the extra load.
