Thank You Mr.M......... the curtain is at last lifted.........(well partially raised)....... I will be proceeding very timidly with Tol' use (AB-use?  ),but, sounds almost like an 'all-ups-no-downs' affair - if treated with respect. [ I won't be making too many comments in/amongst your threads, as most of what your talking about goes WAY over my 'No.2 cut'. I took O-level Chemistry AND O-level Physics AND passed both, BUT, when the 2 are combined and weaved amongst engine internals.......I'm lost !] Yours, Steve. |

If you proceed Steve, then please post your results on this forum, I
know the 'other place' will get it, but a first hand account here would be
appreciated, good or bad, we/I would like to know. Good luck and be careful. Regards. |

Apologies for diluting the Skyline focus of this thread
but... I think IanC and I on the Supra list both agree that it sounds better and feels smoother especially the idle. This is all probably down the ignition not having to retard itself so much. If you haven't used Tol before put it in and let it settle - reset the ECU - fire it up - let it do its idle hunt and settle on a (roughly) 600 rpm idle, then take her for a spin. |

Alex post a link to your Octane thread, i'm sure everyone here would
like to share IanCs' and others 'contribution' to the
discussion.
If this is difficult I have copied all of it, it is not very big, and perhaps we could put it in a thread all of its own. Last edited by Mycroft : 31st July 2002 at 09:15 PM. |

I can't remember which thread on Toluene
you mean, sorry, our most recent chat about it was over lunch so that
kinda rules out posting our ramblings! There have been loads of threads on fuel and octane boosting (and now octane holding) on the mkivsupra.net/bbs site everyone is free to read them. |

Just a pity that it took 3+ years, but it IS a good
contribution. |

I wish you would post your real name and include an E-mail address
otherwise I feel like I'm talking to a ghost. Sorry if that sounds testy,
I don't mean it to be. Anyways up, that IS an interesting link and describes (probably better) the interaction of Iso-parafins almost exactly as I did earlier in this thread. One of my guys called the action of Iso-parafins as a kind of petrol-brakefluid, not a description to taken too seriously but. It does sound like NF I agree. |

Just found on Miller Oils 'UK' site they do "Octane
Plus". They claim (on the site) an 'average' of 'up-to' 1.6 RON increase and example there 95-to-97 & 97-to-99 (I think it was 99) [ It specifically said RON and gave the eg's ! - hard to prove/disprove I suppose ? ] NOT saying I believe it, just quoting. That would be VERY good for any 'bottle', from your posts ? Any knowledge of . . . . (would make a good standby for when Tol' not available !?) Didn't see how big the bottle was - or how much.... (probably 5Litres @ £30 or some' stupid - might actually do it THEN - eehh ? ) |

Here is your answer to the "toluene bit"!!! If you are using a 10% add of toluene then you add 1 ml per litre of the Nitrous Formula Race. If your using 20% add of toluene then you use 2 mls per litre and 30 % of toluene then 3 mls etc!!!etc, etc If you get up to 15 mls per litre then you should have between 700 and 800 bhp using 98 octane fuel as a base. Hope this answers your question. I think you'll find this mix a lot cheaper, safer (personal health)and easier to use than toluene and so much better on your engine. __________________ When only the BEST will do!! |

Mycroft,
In another thread not unrelated to this one, you commented on the CV of the JET brand of PUL. What if any observations did you make on that particular brands RON and subsequent effects on detonation. |

Nitro... What/Who is Nitrous Formula Race ? ? I was asking about MILLERS "Octane Plus" ! 1ml per Litre ? That's only ~ 50/60ml per whole tank ! ! WHAT is going to raise octane levels significantly at THOSE sorts of concentrations ? ? Steve. |

Perhaps you had better read your thread again. You didnt ask anything about "Miller's" but made a statement!!!!! Here is what you ACTUALLY asked "Any knowledge of . . . . (would make a good standby for when Tol' not available !?) Didn't see how big the bottle was - or how much.... (probably 5Litres @ £30 or some' stupid - might actually do it THEN - eehh ? )" So re-read my thread and you have the answer and if you havn't heard of "Nitrous Formula Octane Booster's" it would be a very good idea for you to know some more here's the address. http://www.nitrous.com.au/ One thing i have to say is your very good at maths 1 ml per litre IS 50/60 mls per tank!!! Thays all you need its the CHEAPEST Octane Booster on the Market that REALLY WORKS !! per tank / increase and best value money can buy  And as i said much safer for your health !!!!!  __________________ When only the BEST will do!! |
