Not good, you don't need it. Porsche does not recommend oil or gas additives. Use the highest pump grade you can get (here it's 93) from a name brand and you should be ok. I use Shell Vpower or sometimes Chevron.


Why do you think you need an octane booster?

Just curious with tune advancing timing and putting in more fuel to go with improved air coming in and mods to complete exhaust, had thoughts of improving fuel. Only 93 here is Sunoco and Citgo.

93 is perfectly fine, use the Sunoco.
