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

I'm not sure, without doing the research, that any octane booster doesn't have any negative side effect. Being flawless...
Ive always ran good base fuel. 100+ octane.
This boostane is new to me, last year. And not arguing, cuz I'm a super fan.
Just more towards the cautious side of things.

Dam, I'm new to this Boostane game, and didn't realize they have more then one! Oh well, now I know, Thanks!

There is no such thing as 100 octane 'base fuel', I know you mean you start with good quality fuel but you should be aware that there is only 87-90 octane gasoline plus additives. All fuel is a mix of raw/refined gasoline plus additives to make the higher octane blends. The only role of those additives is to make the fuel less prone (more resistant) to spontaneous combustion (knock/ping). From what I understand, for most low to mid-market (not big brand) fuel distribution this means that the fuel trucks are receiving a load of 87-octane gasoline and a dose of fuel additive to make the octane rated load that they will deliver as a higher octane. So it all has additives. At least with boostane you know where it is coming from.

You guys talk about 1000 foot rips like we talk about 200 mile rides!

So am i To understand that it's your opinion that AV fuel is the same quality as 91 and the Appropriate amount of boost additive?
If it is and you owned a $100,000 plus motor , I think you might reconsider. Lol.

I have nothing left to add, as I'm a work in progress. lol. Gonna be a good year!

Its not my opinion, google AVGas vs MoGas.

To be clear, I wasn't making a comment on AVGas at all, only that gasoline, in all of its flavors for general use starts out the same and its the additive packages that make it 87, 91, 93, or other. AV Fuel is LL (Low Lead) fuel. MoGas (car gasoline) is lead free and when mixed, and blended with different goals. Otherwise they start off identically. They are both petroleum based, ignition combustion fuels that are basically identical until you get to the mix and additive packages. There are of course more regulations on MoGas fuels and in some ways more freedom as well because the use cases are quite different.

Whether the engine cost $100.00 or $100,000.00 is neither hear nor there. If you are burning petroleum, there are only so many ways to slice that cake and come out with fuel which meets the engineering targets of an ICE power plant.

Lots of articles from Jim czekala of dyno tech in which he’s proven race fuel without the volital front ends in the can which all bleed off in the 5 gal can is basically lawnmower gas at that point. You need to use a nitrogen blanket under pressure to seal off the containers and hold those front ends or revive them if you will. He even has an rvp tester and can show you how to make one. Also never ever ever shake your fuel if you can help it. A lot of the mix is infused for lack of a better term, like carbonation in soda. It will actually release these volutal front ends an rvp and make it even less potent

It loses vapor pressure, so it makes it harder to light off, it doesn't actually turn it into low octane lawnmower fuel. Actually, low octane fuel lights off easier than race fuel when it gets cold, and the reason we had to start race sleds in the winter on old 87 octane to get em to start easier.

Well what’s the actual technical version of what I said yes. I know the ins and outs but it’s basically same thing. And been years since I read his article. Essentially you open your fuel and it looses the rvp and front ends of fuel or if it depressurizes in can you’re better off running 87

I have yet to open the last couple of 32oz cans in the case of six I bought two seasons ago.
Hopefully they will still be good!

if you go to the boostane web page, they claim two years in a sealed container.

Will the ice be good on Lake Gogebic by Christmas week?

I’ve heard so much pump gas this and that and it seems that people like 94 and 95 oct for their boosted up turbos? Lol
This is good stuff!

I say if you really want to see what the sled does in 1000ft put in the good gas you can make max hp with and get some traction and let her eat
My 2 cents that aren’t worth much lol
Also my preference with the speeds is on snow since that’s what we ride on

Traction is king! After that someone is playing catch me if you can. Lol
