I recently started using some Turbo 108 octane booster. I'm not relying on the stuff, as I still only buy 93 or 94 octane gas, but figured it would offer bit more of a safety margin. It costs $5 and some change for a can at Pep Boys. One can is enough to treat 44 gallons of gas, so Its more than enough for 2 fill ups. Also, I'm running 16 psi at the most on pump gas. What do you guys think?

I wouldn't rely on it personally, i'm not sure it really makes that big a difference. I run 18psi on pump 93 and have been for quit some time with no problems. Maybe one of these guys running around with wide bands can put some in their cars and tell us what happens?

my friend cody used to use that stuff, back in the day when he was running 17-18 psi on an m2 ecu. i dunno if it was luck, or the octane booster but the car ran like that for 30k
