Yes I would be interested

Is there any down side to over doing other than wasting product

Just the impact on your wallet

Tetraethyllead is the principal compound in octane booster. You want to use just enough and not too much. It's really more harmful to catalytic converters and O2 sensors. And does leave deposits behind in engine as well.

Its a fraction of the overall composition of the fuel moving through the system, its actually a fraction of a fraction. Its all in the ratio. This isn't a question of leaded vs unleaded, this is a small amount of harmful substance in an engine you are running in an arguably more harmful way than designed (if you really need more octane). There is no free lunch no matter which way you go.

Tetraethyllead Substitute is used in some octane booster’s like klotzfor example. Boostane and Torco use MMT. MMT will separate over time but does not do this in Boostane‘s formula, which is why it can be considered a “better” option than torco. Idont believe lead substitute is used in the formulas that contain mmt but I may be wrong. Mmtis what leaves the orange-ish residue on sensors, spark plugs, exhaust etc

Boostane has an app you can put on your smartphone you know. It is very easy to use the app, just click on simple calculator, put the gallons in you want to treat, the starting octane of the base fuel and the octane you want to get to, It will tell you how much total product to add to those gallons.

What I like about the Boostane Professional is it just flat out works and requires so little of it added to a tank full to increase the octane. If you have a machine that needs more octane, or want to use it for insurance because of poor quality fuel, I haven run across anything better. Torco and the old Dragon fuels concentrate was good and worked well, but you needed WAY more of it in a tank compared to Boostane. I tried the Klotz booster and found it to be an absolute failure no matter how much you put in, it wouldn't keep deto at bay in the 998.

When I first tried the Boostane Professional, I thought there was a mistake in their app in only needing 1.28 oz TOTAL in a 10 gallon tank of 91 octane fuel to get it to 93 octane, but it's really all that was needed.

To get 91 octane up to 95 octane requires 2.56 oz of Boostane Professional TOTAL in 10 gallons. How do they do it with so little product I'll never know, but Its way better octane booster than any of the others! As a bonus it stay in suspension without the solid particles that can be seen like the other octane boosters floating around, I always worried that those solid particles would clog filters and injectors because if you can see them in the fuel it cant be good right, but no solid particles can be seen in the Boostane Professional product. I myself wont use another booster again after finding the Boostane Professional to work so very well.

Would an unopened 32oz can of Boostaine professional from last year still be good this year?

I use this for pump gas race gas mixture
Yes it will on the unopened can
Don’t bring a knife to a gunfight
Lol
Boostane app has liters or gallons

That is an impressive spreadsheet sir. Flipped through all the pages and that’s a good bit of info

Thanks, I like having everything in one place so anytime some useful tidbit comes up here I put it in the spreadsheet. Someday I will clean it all up.

There's a lot of products that store better in metal containers. Fuel, Seafoam, boost additives, etc.

Are you guys using boostane premium, or professional?

Professional for me.

 

[Turboflash]

I don’t think it’s the same. I was just messing around on their calculator and to transform 10 gallons of 91 octane to 94 octane it takes 1.7 oz of professional and 2.4 of premium to do the same.

Not the same. It takes more Premium to equal Professional.

Not sure about that. Premium Boostane is supposedly street legal. Professional Boostane is not.

Boostane says on their website that it is not harmful to catalytic converters or O2 sensors.
