working at an autoparts store, I've seen tons of people walk in to buy a bottle of octane booster for their NA cavalier, saying they would get sooo much more power. *pukes. Obviously octane boosters have a benefit for boosted engines and I'm not denying that in any way. However, most OE NA engines wont respond to the increased octane. As far as my previous post goes, I'm commenting on the way people speak of engine swaps and turbo charging like it as easy as pouring a bottle of octane boost, in other words i'm poking fun at peoples' overly optomistic mentality. There is no doubt that both modifications can be completed in a day (40 second engine swaps on youtube speak to this) but ignoring the planning, collection of parts, and research is overlooking a major part of said mods. No need to get snappy.
