Not quite the stuff we're talking about...but their (Yellow Can) FI
Cleaner/Improver also works wonders. Shouldn't hurt at every fillup but not
really required since it's mainly a cleaner. (And yes, the stuff works
better than PI.)

The Octane Booster is a Black Can and it states "Octane Booster".

Heyya guys!
While on a little trip to Wichita I decided to look for some of that
famous NOS fuel additive in a black bottle. Bernd, you know what I'm
talking about! The fun stuff, hehehe! Well I drove all around and went
into AutoZone, O-Reiley's, and Advanced Auto Parts but couldn't find it.
They only had the stuff in the blue bottles. I was about to give up when
I drove by a Pep Boys so I went in to see if they had any. Sure enough,
they did! It's black and it says NOS Fuel Injector Cleaner and
Performance Enhancer. I wasn't sure if that's what you guys were
talking about but I went ahead and bought 2 bottles. Did I get the stuff
you got?

I filled up with gas, got 89 octane, and put in a bottle. I got on the
turnpike and holy crap! I'm not sure if this is the right stuff but I
noticed a big difference! After I put in my 3.9 gears I couldn't get my
truck past 105 mph and 4,000 rpms in 5th gear. I floored the sucker and
it shot past 105 and hit the 115 mph speed limiter. That was after I
waved smell-ya-later to a girl in a Taurus who was bugging the crap
outta me riding my butt (she wasn't very cute otherwise I wouldn't have
cared!). It sure has seemed to help acceleration, especially in the
higher end, like from 70 and above. I'm thinking I'm going to start
paying 7 more bucks per fill up!
Never knew something out of a can can be this much fun, except for beer
of course, hehehe!

I found a place on the internet that sells the stuff. It's at
autobarn.com. Instead of driving an hour to the nearest Pep Boys I'm
going to order it from there from now on.

Bernd, do you think it'd be safe to use it with every fill up?

Later,
