how certain are u of this? where i am, i have only 89 octane avail, and i was counting on using toluene for every fillup in my brand new 335.

than ks for your input.
I would use Lucas UCL if you are going to do that. Pump gas is pretty dry as it is and with the high % of HPFP failure's you would need some form of stabilizer/lubricant IMO.

I would not use Toluene as a long term octane increaser. I would rather tune my car for 89.
