You shouldent need octane booster unless your tuner is an idiot.

and Torco is the only octane booster that actually works.



Correct, you don't NEED octane booster. I just like to play is safe when it comes to any type of forced induction as should everyone who does not want a blown engine. Especially when the weather is hot.
Suit yourself, but I would rather be fast and reliable at the same time without having to worry about detination. I have yet to "Tune" my car, but I am only running a 75 shot so I don't really NEED to "Tune" it yet. Tunning will come if I decide to go bigger than 75. You indicate "Torco is the only octane booster that actually works". It will be helpful to us all if you have tests that "actually" proves it is the "only" one that works.



your right.. dont tune a car with nitrous... Talk to me when you blow your engine.. idiot.

Explain to me how adding octane booster even comes close to the quality of a good tune? Dosent..

And yes, Torco is the only octane booster that works, unless you want .02 of an octane for each bottle you add.




Thanks to DemonSVT, Warmonger & Matty K for clarifing what I was trying to portray.

2 years, countless bottles and no blown engine yet....Touriage. I appreciate the info, but the bashing is unnecessary. I may not have a lot of post, but I have done plenty of research, hence why my car is running in pristine shape. You may want to try to research a little more yourself so that way, you can share your info in a polite and mature fashion.

Now, you explain to me where I indicated in my posts comparing octane booster to a quality good tune? Didn't think so. Once I get and XCAL2 or something equivalent, I will definitely tune my car to make it run even more reliable and stronger.

Sorry to break the bad news Touriage, but you are incorrect when you indicate "Torco is the ONLY that works." Others have been proven to work as well. Torco might boost the levels more than others, but that does not mean others don't work. Good day.

That sounds a lot like "I dont need a tune, but throwing in some octane booster is going to save my engine"
