so what would happen if i ran itb's on my KA and still kept the jixxer injectors along with my bigger injectors and put in another cell for whatever shit ur talking about, wired up the injectors with a ground switc so that i could have a sort of ghetto ass nos system but cheap?? (sorry i just have these stupid ideas that pop into my head)

I would only mix it in with the gas. I don't think it would be a good idea to inject seperatly. Burnig characteristics are slightly diferent than gas. Xylene is 117 octane ,so when you mix it with gas it bumps up the octane. Cheap octane booster. Its a petroleum product so the price has been increasing over the last few years with the price of gas. Do yourself a favor and google Xylene and or Toluene if you have never heard of them.

I don't want to get bashed and i'm not trying to start shit but i've heard that mixing in toulene does work as a cheap octane booster but is terrible on your engine, reducing life dramatically. Something about weird buildups or heat or something, i forget, i remember looking it up a year or so ago.

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

I've also heard this. I've been using it for years now on and off on different vehicles with no problems. I believe excessive amounts ARE harmfull but using it wisely is safe. 20 percent xylene, 80 percent gasoline. From what I understand xylene and toluene are ingridients in gasoline anyways.

yeah but they are higher concentrated amounts, potentially containing different chemicals in them as well...

I'm surprised you were able to get out the store with that big "SUCKER" sign affixed to your back.
