Did this work for anyone...it did not work for me.

ICDEDPPL 11-29-2021 07:01 PM

I used the code and got a second 6 pack for half price . You know you have to buy 2 right?

F14A water jet 11-29-2021 07:14 PM

Roger that...How long have you been using this and (I'm assuming by your purchase) that you are comfortable with its performance/octane gains? I have been considering an additive for those times when my Marina does not have premium fuel for my big blocks.
Thanks,
Tom

Tom, I've been using Boostane for years....It is outstanding. Enables you to properly acquire the amount of octane that you desire. I have never had an issue...both with the BB's in the Fastech as well as the 225 Promax OB's on the Superboat.

That is a SOLID endorsement! Thanks

BadMonkey,

How does Boostane compare to VP's octane booster? Seems like the ratios are about the same.

Additionally, for us mortals who don't need 110 octane rating, is there any advantage to using octane booster if we can get what we need at the pump?

I'm running a stage 2 Whipple tuned 496HO with an M1 Procharger to 3-5lb of boost at WOT. One of the biggest problems I've got is that I only really need 91 octane fuel, according to Merc and Dustin Whipple, but most pumps I regularly haunt only have 87, 89 and 93, and I find a lot more transom suet with the 93 over the 89.

Thanks. Brad.

I am surely no expert BUT my research showed that VP Octanium® Unleaded Octane Booster had some long-term maintenance concerns/issues (maybe associated with O2 sensors and car catalytic converters). Also, Boostane (and most brands) allows you to tailor your octane to your needs with mix rations (Oz. per gallon of gas) depending on the octane. I did a spreadsheet of costs and Boostane was the most economical with the least amount of negatives (followed by Aces IV).

It looks like you have to order a minimum of 2 groups of six and you get the 2nd for 50% off.

F14A,

Another dumb question...

Again, since I don't need triple digit octane, I can actually get what I need from the pump. But, as I stated, most pumps don't have 91, and the 93 seems to suet up the transom something fierce. Could a guy get away with pumping equal amounts of 89 and 93, and expect 91 octane as a result? Obviously, I can do the math, but does the chemistry work that way?

It will be more cost effective to get your fuel at the pump.
Yes, equal parts of 89 and 93 will get you 91 octane.

Octane has nothing to do with soot on your transom especially a difference of 2 points. YOu got something else going on . Soot means you`re running rich.
Run as much octane as you can, octane is resistance to detonation, that`s it. It doesnt burn slower or faster like the old wives tales would have you believe.
If your engine is set up to run 89 octane and you put in 116 you wont lose or gain power. There`s an entire episode on this (engine masters).

Boosted you need to see what your final compression ratio is and that determines if you need more octane then pup gas can provide.
There`s more to it but here`s a general rule chart:(bosted)

https://goodvibesracing.com/Compression_Ratio.htm

as an example if my engine is 8.0:1 and I`m running 10 psi I should be running some boostane because pump gas is not going to cut it .

Dan most 500 efi and 525 boats have noticeably more soot on the transom with 93 than 89, and many have tested to run a tick slower with 93. That said, Mercury has notoriously rich tunes.

bob 11-30-2021 07:43 PM

Dan just ordered two 5 gallon buckets Boostane Prof. thru Boostane. Delivered $599.99. Bought 5 gallons through Amazon a few weeks ago and it was $425.99 delivered. So for $175 I got an additional 5 gallons. Super deal! Took me a few times to get the BOGO code right. Code has a zero at end. I tried to make it an O. Thanks for the heads up!

That`s a great deal! yes the last 2 are numbers fifty (50)
I bought 12 cans of the marine for $277.
Their email said it was only for black friday deal so I`m glad it still works . I may order more

That`s interesting. Any idea why octane would cause sooting ?Does not compute to me.

The outcome of this episode where they dynoed the same engine on 87 thru 116octane race fuel and optimized timing and fuel... it made almost no difference in power .

Typically factory EFI.
Many set ups (as a whole, not just boats) first time over , say, 60% throttle , each run period, will do quick knock sensor test. Will go to preprogrammed timing # where it shoukd knock. If it doesn’t the computer will run at a lower timing table thinking the knock sensor system isn’t working right. Some efi programs will also add touch more fuel.

Thus why you typically don’t see a carb or aftermarket efi do this, with just octane change.

ICDEDPPL 11-30-2021 11:35 PM

Oh that is interesting but makes sense !!

On the 500EFI it normally comes out to about 5hp on the dyno, not that you would notice that in the boat.

JD,

My engine has a Whipple stage 2 tune on the ECM, which is SUPPOSED to reduce the transom suet. I do, in fact, notice a significant increase in the suet between 89 octane and 93. I always try and run the 93 (wish I could find a consistent source for 91), but there have been a couple times the station I happened across was out of 93, so I pumped the 89, and just stayed out of the fun stick for the day. I also try and run on a fairly empty tank, to reduce the weight, both on the road and on the water, so I'm usually running pretty close to what I've just recently pumped.

Just my two cents....

Thanks. Brad.

Blower motors and 89 octane do not mix.

ICDEDPPL,

OH, absolutely agree. I've only done it twice, and only due to a lack of options. We do most of our "close to home" boating at an overgrown puddle close by, so we can just cruise around, staying well below any manifold pressure.

My intention going forward is going to be, when 91 octane isn't available, to pump equal parts 89 and 93 (again, assuming that's what's available) whenever we need fuel

As a side note.... Do we really consider the ProCharger to be a real supercharger? All the drawbacks of a turbo, with none of the benefits of a roots or Whipple. I'm not so impressed with the package I've got. I was all excited about buying a boat with a supercharger, but not so much now that I've had to prop down to get the family boat I sold the wife on when we were discussing buying it. I'm hoping to eventually talk her into letting me repower at some point, including the drive.

Thanks. Brad.
