silverv6- you can get more power from octane boosters but not directly. Octane level is a measure of gasolines resistance to detonation. Basically, the higher the octane the harder it will be to ignite. Thus, it will burn slower. This allows you to raise the timing without causing detonation. Raising the timing will give a little bit more power.
