Honda used it to great effect in their turbo F1 engines, at up to 40lbs of boost.I guess if you are going for every rwkw, this is a viable option, but I think not for just a modded daily driver. Horses for courses I suppose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We test our e85 and are getting excellent results, typically a 350 kw turbo engine can make another 60-100 kw at the same boost. We went from 9.92 to 9.72 and added 5 mph in a VL turbo on the 1/4. We used toluene when I did my advanced engine design and tuning course back in the '90's, and it wasn't new then, if it were the answer it would be used universally.
