I'll let you all know if I feel a difference from the off the shelf octane booster.

if the toluene is 114oct, you've got 92.53 octane fuel in your car once mixed.

Default I get 93 from the pump!
Sunco here in Pittsburgh has 93 at the pump.

I'd like to see him dump 2 gallons of toluene in the tank and see what happens.

Hmmmm....maybe I'll try that with my junker car...
see how much toluene I can dump in the tank before it won't run anymore (or until the heads blow!)
