I have a 14 pro with a turbo at 7psi. I typically blend race fuel, but I'm heading on a trip and would have to pack in race fuel to mix with the gas that as available. Is there a good octane booster that anyone has used that would work?

I wouldn't waste money on any type of "octane booster" other than Torco. Some say this stuff is "snake oil" but I have friends who have ran it for years without problems. Do a search on Torco Accelerator. You should be able to buy it online. The friend I had using it was using pump 91 along with Torco in his M8 at 10 lbs of boost.

Yes the Torco really works. I ran it in a Silber set up at 7psi and 4-5psi at 900'. No issues at all. I have a Car that would detonate on straight 91 oct but add some Torco Accelerator and no more detonation. There is no lead in it also vs other octane boosters.

So you are looking at about $2.00 per gallon to go from 91 octane up to 100 octane using this additive.
