My friend did the coolest thing in his Probe.

Dom · **My friend did the coolest thing in his Probe.**

He fillled his washer fluid resevior with octane booster. The used vaccum hose to run it to his intake. When he turned the windshield wiper on it when into the engine, bogged it down for a second and bam.

He was going 85 in the 5th, after he injected he was doing 130. :shock:

It's ghetto nitrous!

Sounds like a winner.

octane booster only raises your gas octane by 0.1-0.3 i doubt it had that full effect. if anything its just to raise the combustable stuff in the engine, but made it run richer than normal.

sounds like the redkneck way of getting around of doing a full nitrous install

He's the #1 ricer at our school. Slammed Probe with a huge as wing.

sounds like your friend likes to rape grocery carts and see them high on octane!

cant wait till he messes up his engine doing stupid stuff like that

yes monkey is correct, those things are just newbie crap, it is bogus on how much octane it raises. i believe ocatanes are measured in kilo's or similar like calories (the stuff you eat) are actually KILOcalories... so imagine if a diet claimed to knock off "200 calories" a day they could technically be meaning .2 of a KILOcalorie.
