Save your money. An 8oz bottle of anything isn't even going to move your octane by a point on 16gal of gas.

It's the MTT in some boosters that will clog your cats.

I ran Torco with a full tank of 91oct gas in my AMG back in the day to work for my 93oct tune and it worked like a champ .

1-32oz. can for a full tank of gas worked perfect or you could always buy 5 gallons of 110oct race fuel to a full tank for the desired 93oct tune with 91oct gas

Not sure what the long term ramifications are by adding a can to every tank but I can say that the stuff does work based on dyno results. I usually have a can in the trunk for when I travel to states that don’t have to good stuff on tap ;-)

Torco is about the only booster that works. A lot of guys at 1/2 mile races that didnt have a race gas tune ran it.

Torco fuels are pretty good. The accelerator, not so much. You would get much more bang for the buck by buying a 5 gal 104 sunco jug for $50 and pour a gallon of that into you tank at every fill-up. The 32oz can is $20+ each. It wont move the octane scale as much.
