I've heard of people using Toluene. Here's a couple links.

I ran xylene in one of my older projects for fun to see if there was any negative effects....other than making more power(do to being able to up the boost a bit) and being able to destroy clutches and tires faster it didnt seem to hurt anything.
No need to use it unless you have detonation though.....
