just make sure you put the oct boost in BEFORE you fill your tank so it mixes up nicely.

Like he said it will only increase the octane by like .3 or .4 points. So if you use 92 octane gas, it will go up to a whopping 92.4. Just go find 93 octane gas or go to home depot and do this:

Toluene is the ingredient of some paint thinner. Really simple, buy a gallon of toluene paint thinner and a full tank of gas, maybe an extra 10 gallons, and the mix will be around 100 octane. A gallon of thinner might be $10, the same cost of some of the gayboys, and autocrapzone octane boosters.

yeah, i'm currently na, but not by choice, your na and proud ;D are you saying you put injector cleaner in every tank, or just to put it in before you fill up is common sense?
