like the title says anyone use it and how do you like it, because i am getting a tecate 4 from 370 when i get all the money soon and want to know how you all like the octane boost since it needs around 100 octane.
 
ive ran av fuel in mine and had no trouble only like 100 octane though but ran good since its made for air cooled engines...
 
For our DIRT Modifieds we run VP Race Fuels 114 octane gas, howd that work with my stock blasty motor with k&n filter and toomey pipe kit? haha
too much octane.. what most people don't realiase is that higher octane fuels burn SLOWER.. so if you have a pump gas engine and dump race gas in it your hurting performance. thats why race gas engiens have higher compression and/or more timign advance.. octane is mearly an anti knock rating.. it's a measure of a fuels ability to reisist detonation... a stock blaster needs nothing more than 89 or 93.. any more and your wasting your money..
 
The highest pump gas I can get in my area is 93 so I use a little octane booster to help out.
to help what out? do you have alot of timing advance? do you have alot of compression? if you have a pump gas engine and it doesn't detonate with pump gas than the octane boost is a waste..
