from my understanding, octane booter's do Jack ****....

...when I did use them, they didn't do crap for me.

scratchjunkie

you dont notice increased gas milage?

NOS racing formula... is the one I use... I usually run 14.5 psi on 92 pump gas here with the NOS stuff.

you notice a bit better throdle response but mainly gives you a little protection from detonation.

I'm adding fuel lubricant to each fill up. Any harm in using Xylene/Toulene with it simulatenously?

I used toulene in my Talon all the time, it's a pretty common thing. Back in the 80's the turboed indy cars would use like 60% toulene and run 60 psi to get 1500 hp out of they're little 4 cylinders. Pretty crazy stuff.

Yup, I would use toulene as an octane booster. Go here http://www.gnttype.org/techarea/misc/octanebooster.html and find your mix and what kind of octane booster you want to use.

''Notes: Common ingredient in Octane Boosters in a can. 12-16 ounces will only raise octane 2-3 *points*, I.e. from 92 to 92.3. Often costs $3-5 for 12-16 ounces, when it can be purchased for less than $3/gal at chemical supply houses or paint stores. ''

that could become quite cost effective if you were to make your own or homebrew. I wonder if the increased octane would start to dissolve fuel lines and such.
