I was looking around on DSMtuners.com and found a few articles on making home-made 116 octane race gas. It seems that if you mix 1 part toluene(industrial cleaner) to 9 parts 91 octane gasoline it will yield a 116 octane mix. I was wondering if anybody had tried this? I was thinking about testing it out for the 30th.
Heres one of the articles. There are a few more, but this one seems to be the best. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96893 -------------------- 2003 Mustang GT

Actually, going by R+M/2 for octane rating, a 10% toluene mix will only yield slightly higher than 94 octane, but that's starting with 92 octane unleaded, not 93. This is a good article that I found a while ago...
