What would happen?
 
What would happen if when i go to use my nitrous and i have like 1/2 tank of 87 and fill it up with 93 and then use it would it hurt the engine any or should it be alright. When i say go to use it like on a dyno pull or at the track.

hmmmm get an octane booster. It's supposed to add another 5-6 points. I dont know what your thoughts on that. Octane booster works pretty good on my turbo set-up....

You are averaging 90 octane half and half.. I would not use it until you get better gas depending on detonation..

yea i think octane booster only adds like 1 octane to 20 gallons of fuel, u could probably poor rubbing alcohol in and get a better effect

by 5-6 points they mean, 91 octane will be 91.5-91.6 octane.

its a rip off.
