Unless you guys missed I was being sarcastic about toluene doing things to your neigbours dog etc..

Anyone telling you that it rots fuel lines is misinformed at best and at worst an 'idiot' (one who is politically ignorant from ancient greek language).

Plenty of myths about on this stuff touted by people who know nothing about the use and who most definately have never used the stuff.

Every time I see a comparison between toluene and bottle based octane boosters it makes me laugh, they are so full of crap.

ok, today i fill up using Shell Fuel and Octance Booster, the Octance booster says its boost up octance by 70points, which is like 7ron correct? so i should be running just around 100ron

im going to way a few days let the fuel get into the system and see how its goes.

70 points??? I think the printers must have farked up.  Most octane boosters only claim 3 to 4 points, which is barely noticeable anyway, if at all.

Thats what i through must be a mistake, but i check most of the bottles and they all say 7ron (70 points); i would have never pick but it was on specail so it was cheaper than normal (i think its something like $20-$30 for a bottle normaly)

I dont really think i will get +7ron but if i get atlest +2 or +3 i will be happy

p.s i dont know if u remember be steve but i was at the drift prac dude in grey r33, i talk to you abit and u gave me some good tips. Im michael aka mikey :D

Yeah mikey look at the bottle again, I think it might say 7 points not 7 RON. What did you actually buy? I have tried stuff from supercheap when I dragged my Pintara down the Motorplex for fun, got 18 sec! Heheh.

ahaha i just check again for you guys Boosts octance to 7 numbers RON (70 points)

its called pro strength octance booster

whats the fuel/booster mix needed to get the 7 extra RON points?

1bottle per litre? :P

FYI, if your super desperate to put 98 RON fuel in your car the tiger kart club (the one next to the ole MC) has Optimax for 33$ per 20L drum. They use it for their karts in certain classes.

says 500Ml for 60L, but i did 500mL for 40L ahahaa

$33 / 20 L ??? OMG. Izzin't that 82.50 for a full tank of 50 lits ??? SHEESH!

I paid $78 to fill up once, that was when it was $1.47 a litre for 98. :P

Have to put Shell premium in mine tomorrow, got under a quarter of oh so good 98 left......... :D

p.s i dont know if u remember be steve

Yep, certainly do remeber you :) nice car and some nice driving too.

Serioulsly guys, tolulene is your friend, your car will love you for using it :O And if your thinking of paying lots for fuel, I can also recommend elf LMS, 102 RON and at $5.50 per litre, it is awesome stuff if you have the money.

Oh, and I found some cheap tolulene at Westfuels, $66 for 20L :)

Update on Premium Fuel Availability

BP has advised that their refinery is now back up and running. They will be supplying premium unleaded petrol and 98 Ron (marketed at BP sites as 'Ultimate') to retail sites as of today. It may take a few days for all sites to be fully stocked, so to be sure fuel is available, you should contact the site first.

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
