I did some research on DIY octane booster. At my local track the only unleaded fuel they have is Sunoco 100, it costs $5.80 a gallon and when mixed with 92 octane it doesn't make a big difference. I was talking to some one at the track and he said he was using toluene.
I found a recipe that goes as follows for one gallon of booster:
100 oz toluene for octane boost
25 oz mineral spirits (cleaning agent)
3 oz tranny fluid (lubricating agent)
here's the link http://www.vtr.org/maintain/gasoline-octane.html
Anyone have any experience's or idea's about this, good or bad?
