Interesting thread, now if I can just turn it around a little. Rather than
octane what can be mixed with gasoline to give a HP boost? I want to try
something else other than N2O in a fuel class.
What will propylene oxide do?
What about nitro propane?
Nitromethane through a carb?
What else is there?
