@WICKEDOWESIX Can you talk about the Lucas Octane Booster? My kit for Gen V 2018 says in instructions not to use any octane booster. Which Lucas are you using? Is it safe for O2 sensors I assume?
Can you tell a difference when you do or don't run it? I also have wonderful 91 octane CA gas. So I would love to boost the octane a little without damaging the 02s. How much are you using?

Thank you,
Jon

They only make one Octane booster. I use 2 bottles for a full tank.
