Actually it gets you to 87.3 (or thereabouts) and for the price of those 3 bottles, you might have been better off just buying 93 octane to begin with.

Kinda what I was thinking ...

If you're really looking for some boost, do some reading on xylene. Hit Google up or something.

yeah octane boosters are a joke... the most you can get with the really good ones is about .3-.5 per 12 gallons with one bottle.... and those go for like 12-18 dollars a bottle..... money better spent on good gas...

i saw some plugs like that on a cobalt some kid had riced up.... he put like 7 bottles into 13 gallons of fuel.... jackass
