How would one actually put it in safely? I mean should I buy some and stand there at the pump. Put in a guestimate on 4ish gals and then fill the rest of it up with 93?

Or can you just put in several gallons, then drive to the gas station and fill up the rest? I'm just wondering how careful you have to be and why is it nessarly to keep a certain mix%. What happens if my mix is a little more than its supposed to be?

I guess the engine would overheat??

I've used zylene as opposed to race gas on a couple of occasions. Would run my tank close to empty prior to a DE/AX and would use a 5 gal container with 3 gals of xylene (approx $50/ Home Depot) pour the xylene in (carefully) and follow with 7 gals of 91 oct. Boosting octane rating to approx. 98.8. Total cost about $75. Compared to race gas locally at $9 per/gal, not bad.

Re the original question, I'd be more concerned about the clutch at that power level, if it's stock. That's about the level my stock clutch started slipping -- it was in good shape, just could not hold that amount of power.

Yeah I agree. From my readings on this forum, anything above 350hp will require a clutch upgrade.

I'd be careful pouring xylene if you get it on your paint be sure you have a hose and some soap close by or you're going to get a nice spot on your paint

one less spot for me to have to sand off
