I use the NOS Racing Formula with my JDM Motor '92 Maxima for 4 years. I also used the Lucas Oil as well. The NOS is very expensive. $13.99 per 20 gallon bottle and contains Nitro Methane along with MMT. If you live in an area where there is only 91 octane gas..... just try it. What do you have to lose other than a funnel and $9.

Nissan uses 0ctane Boost when testing the GTR in Cali. hmmm

and he's full of shit!

I don't know how talking to the "technician" of the product makes someone right.

Like no shit they're going to say it works; would he rather have heard "Nawww our product doesn't actually work and it's a scam lol"?

That isn't proof.

Seriously, whatever is cheap and not sketchy.

Marketing and snake oil don't earn my money, 99% of all fuels are the same, quality is tightly regulated.

Let the shill have his fun.

That's the correct thing to believe in, top tier gas is noticeably better because the method of transportation and storage is usually better.

I concede. I'm done talking about Octane Booster. I have never put any in my FRS or Stage 3 Roush. 93 V-Power is just fine where I live. I knew there would be a stink created, but my JDM Nissan engine ran so much better with it. It wanted the boost and I was very happy to spend the extra money.

You guys are rough on me though, I'm 59 and you should show some respect for your elders. Also, if you were in the same room with me... I think you would use your words wisely. I will go back to my shop and brush off the hurt some of you inflicted and get over it. At least in my mind I had fun with octane boost. This is the last that I will mention the subject.

Age has nothing to do with misinformation.

Tcoat is around your age, by the way.
