I have been buying Torco Accelerator by the 5 gallon can, and add a quart to each tank. Mine would ping at anything over 21 psi even on 94, so I got into the habit of using it since i REALLY like 25 psi :D. With 1 quart to 16 gallons of 94 I was fine, I only ran a few tanks of the 93 in there and was adding a little more than a quart. Might be worthwhile to add something like a pint to a tankfull if you are concerned.

what's a 5 gallon can of this stuff cost?

$148.60 for the 5 Gallons, $176.89 total shipped via UPS to my door. It works out to $8.85 per quart in bulk (versus like $16 per the quart).

The mixing ratios are........
1 Quart to 20 Gallons of 93 = 97 Octane
1 Quart to 10 Gallons of 93 = 104 Octane
1 Quart to 5 Gallons of 93 = 107 Octane

My Capri has a 16 Gallon tank so adding a quart I figure i'm around 100 octane for the price of less than 2 gallons of race gas. If i'm going to try something stupid with boost or timing, I will add a quart and a half to get up above 100.

I wish someone around here was a Torco distributor as we could save on the UPS shipping cost as they would likely get it (and racegas) by the truckload. At one time the Tedesco's were saying they were set up as a distributor, but I geuss it never panned out.
