The problem is not to get you car to run optimally, but to keep it in that
mode.
A brand new engine needs no octane boosters. Then after it ages and gets
crapped up inside, it's octane requirement increases... Adding octane
boosters is like a fix for an addict. And, naturally, since such products
are intended to boost octane with little/no regard for long-term engine
cleanliness (nor the health of those who come in contact with it), your
engine will quickly become addicted to the octane booster, often to the
point that using it no longer produces any benefit but failure to use it
will result in degraded performance.
I've been down that road...
FAR better to keep your engine new-like clean and its octane requirement
new-like low.
The one product that can do this for my engine is DurAlt Fuel Conditioner.
Among its many talents is the ability to let '60s-era muscle cars that
'require' leaded high-octane gasoline to run safely and well on modern
unleaded fuel.
What matters is the difference between a fuel's octane and an engine's
requirement. Keeping the requirement minimized and the engine cleaner
is the way to go, for multiple reasons...
