Fifth Gear a car show on BBC actually did a test of octane boosters. They found that all of the ones they tested actually caused a 2% loss of power. The tests were run on an engine on a dyno using exact measuments of gas and additives all giving the same results.

We all make mistakes. Hopefully, we don't make the same one twice.
I'd take it easy on the accelerator and get that tank near empty and then fill-up with good 93 again. Give it a few miles afterwards to purge the old crap out of the lines and hopefully the problem will be gone.

157db....i don't get it.....when i said i read the directions, all it said was to add to a near empty tank, then fill with gas.....you can quote me, but at least try to figure out the obvious first! what's this about a cheap throttle body spacer and doubling up on octane booster next time? do you understand what this site is for?.......not personal and ignorant attacks!

If you are not FI DONT use high octane!

huh...WTF

yeah but dyno's aren't that accurate..the accuracy is probably more than + or - 2%....

im not defending the octane booster, just saying..

im just as lost....

i added 101 to my 05about 7-8 months after i bought it before getting it dynoed.same thing happened.long story short,change plugs yours are shot.the plugs gon't like the octane boosters.

Whipple says right in their manual that octane boosters are very hard on spark pulgs.

FI= Forced Induction. Why does everybody think they need to run93 plus octanewhen they are not running FI.
