Conrad, have you noticed all the same benefits I am observing? The car just totally "feels" different, like the accelerator is looser or something.. MUCH better throttle response. A little tap and your stuck in the seat, I love this stuff.

I am wondering why the toluene didn't do this and why the E-85 does, it cannot have anything to do with octane, as Toluene is over 117 octane.
I was just able to eliminate the KR with it, I noticed no other differeneces. Even with the small percentage of E85, the car is totally transformed.
