Octane Booster Causing Overheating?

[BuNcHeSs]

I was going to a car meet with some friends and I added the Nos Octane Booster with Nitro methane. I had 93 octane fuel in the tank and every since my car has been running hotter than usual, could this be the cause?

A: what a waste $$
B: to answer your question, probably not

Most octane booster are waste of money even the decent ones only add 1-3 octane boost iv been told and i doubt that will make you run hotter.

Minorly increased octane only prevents detonation/ pre-combustion. It has no effect on engine running temps.

Actually, fuel has a lot to do with EGT.

1 to 3 octane isnt going to make any difference, although I realize my first statement was worded poorly.

Agreed on both accounts
