Octane Boost Products?

OK, so I haven't saved all my dimes for the Hann Auto Tune, and at Autozone the othe day, I almost bought a bottle of 108 OcatneBoost, for my SS.....then thought better of it....

Question: what will this stuff do to my engine and turbo?......my first thought would be a burnt hole in my pistions? am I off base?

The octane boost provided, if any, by such a product will probably be outside the ratio tables built into the ECM. Therefore unrecognizable...no enhanced performance.

I never believed either-UNTIL!

Here is a product we stand behind 100%.
Developed by some frineds that run some pretty heavy hitting turbo and nitrous cars.

I was not a fan until I tested it,made me become a dealer and have never looked back.

I will put my money were my mouth is if someone here finds different results than I.

Yes I am a dealer and yes we sell it to forum members for a reduced price.
