Re:Pricing on Race Gas
 
ive done it, my buddy has done it, and about 400 other GM Wbody cars have done it on a regular basis that i know of (per www.clubgp.com -> Grand Prix website)


never had any issues from it

actually, i remember a guy that used to make his own all the time and run it 100% of the time in his street car.

he had a 55 gal drum filled up to a certain line, and then filled up to the next line with the additive like toloune or xelene or whatever the ---- it is and then would dump in the marvel mystry oil and a splash of tranny fluid like stated above.

he ran like this for a few years on a semi daily driver.

another thing that you can do to add octane points is to put in the YELLOW bottle of "Heat"

its the same stuff as the isopro alcohol stated above, but at a 99% purity

DO NOT PUT RUBBING ALCOHOL IN YOUR CAR. most stuff you buy is like 80% alcohol, the rest is water. put in the yellow bottle of Heat, thats a 99% purity.

Would you sell me an intercooler for less if I went and picked it up.

Do you drive a fuel flexable vehicle?? Just stick to regular gas mang.

I only run it once in a great while and usually only like 2-3gallons per tank, the stuff will wreck your fuel system but you can feel a difference.

that may be true, but when you go to walmart to get that Iso, its 80%.

very rarely does any store or drug store carry the over 80% Iso.

i just mentioned the Yellow Heat bottle for simplicity and the fact that you can find it at almost all parts stores and walmarts and other chains around the US. Good luck down south finding the stuff, its used mostly to keep your fuel lines from freezing and removing the water from your gas.

Haha, I noticed that. Everytime I filled up I was thinking "Damn, I could fill up with AV gas for cheaper than 91". I think they raised it out here so it's higher.....
