Do octane boosters really boost up the octane a couple of points? If so, I guess the 93 octane mixed with a bottle of this stuff would be good enough!

Some guy that lives near me said that the octane booster that really worked for him when he used to spray is the NOS octane booster I mix my 91 with 2 gallons of 100 ocatane.

i wouldn't mix unleaded with leaded gas... up here u can get 105 or 110 leaded fuel for racing for 4$ a gallon, but a 1-5 ratio of that and my 02s were GONE... they sale 95 octane at one of the spinx locally, i try to buy that, tho i dont know if its really even better then 93 or what, but i run nx or n.o.s. booster or some kind of gas treatment usually.
