Fuel needs energy to make power as well as resistance to knock.

Do a little research on Tolueline, it makes great hp per pound of fuel. The good thing is with 1 gallon per 15 gallons of gas it will do wonders. Ran at 100 % the F1 cars made increadable power using real high boost.
You can do a little test your self with a new computer controlled car or truck. Put 1 gallon of Tolueline in your car tank with 15 gallons of whatever gas you use. You will feel the difference in power, your knock censor will allow the timing to advance. There is no led or other metals so it does not hurt the cat.

I did some reading on google:
octane number
noun
noun: octane rating
- a figure indicating the anti-knock properties of a fuel, based on a comparison with a mixture of isooctane and heptane.
Ron Mon Aki toluene 121 107 114 VP C16 Race Fuel 117 118 117.5
re knock versus power..
Perfect example is av gas, has resistance to knock but its not as powerful as other fuels at the same octane ratingLast edited by powerabout; 04-19-2018 at 04:43 AM.

Toluene is awesome just keep nitrates away from it I’m sure you have heard of Tri Nitro Toulene “tnt it’s dynamite “ ac/dc
sulfer has something to do with benzo acids
and it’s bad for carbon parts.
Just about everything has some bad thing.
The f1 thing was 86% toulene 14 heptane

Now we are getting somewhere.
Lets go back to the original question about additives. When you add Toluene to gas it increases resistance to detonation. A relatively inexpensive way to gain performance. I have used this many times when running 190 pounds compression on an OMC 3liter that turned 8850 rpm and made 389hp. I had a 15 gallon tank I would put 14 gallons of gas and 1 gallon of Toluene.
