BOOSTMEISTER Posted May 17, 2002 Share Posted May 17, 2002 FROM THE NEWS DESK :x Was wathcing the news two nights ago and they had a story on high ron fuels and said they were moving to outlaw them as well as octane boosters and both will not be available after the end of the year. Apparently the "Environmental Protection Agency" has performed tests and found that they contain substance that is TOO harmfull for us. This sucks, but what is worse is the fact that they are also banning c16 and c21 and VP race fuels as well unless you have a special CAMS/ANDRA Permit that states that you will use it only on the track and not even for tuning at a wrkshop. Not happy. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/342-octane-booster-illegal/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted May 22, 2002 Share Posted May 22, 2002 Guy's they are talking about banning Racing fuels and Octate Boosters on the Street. Racing fuels are banned as it is,,,but not Additives,,,Thats the One they want Dead. Octane boosters,,,,you can always get around that,,,just use Tolenne,,,,,4 to 1 from memory. Hasn't much to do with us really,,,unless YOU are not running an 02 sensor. Now whats the Fine for NO Cat??????. Neil.
