Do any of these octane boosters change the smell of the exhaust? Maybe something a bit sweeter like what you smell at the track with race fuel?


My parts shop recommended I try "Race Gas" brand. Seems to also be an MMT based additive. Anyone here tried running that?

None that I’ve used nor have heard of. Race gas is a different formulation.

The additives do change the exhaust deposits brown.

Who cares? Amazon will refund your $$ if you complain.


Plus it could be shipped from within Canada.
