Local Man Uses Hims Instead of Octane Booster, Reports 4 Straight Hours of Increased Horsepower

Last minute decision ahead of track day leads to a “firm and immediate performance gain.”

HEMET—Local track-day enthusiast Ryan Delgado says he was trying to gain an advantage over the weekend’s time trial event when an octane booster supply issue forced him into what he now describes as “the strongest and most effective performance mod I’ve ever discovered.”

Delgado, who was preparing his Ford Mustang GT for a time attack event, realized late Friday night that he was completely out of high-octane fuel and octane booster, an oversight he attributed to “being broke.”

“I wanted to make sure I had a little more power, just a little edge,” Delgado explained. “Nothing crazy. Just something to make me the stiff competition for the event.”
