Saab: About OCTANE BOOSTER AND DDR, octane booster, octane boosters


Question
Dear Jerry Schwell

I know it might not be your subject to look at but still its an important matter to know and you must be knowing this issue which i believe.

I checked out a lot and finally thought of writing you the question. A lot of people say a lot of things about OCTANE BOOSTERS and DDR(Direct Deposit Remover) which are additive to fuel. It is really confusing that who should we listen! My questions are given below

1. Can i use 1 bottle of OCTANE BOOSTER each and every time  when I refill my fuel tank with 60 litters of OCTANE? Is it harmful for my car engine if I use always when I fill up my fuel tank? Or please let me know what I should do.


2. Can i use 1 bottle of DDR (Direct Deposit Remover) by HKS each and every time  when I refill my fuel tank with 60 litters of OCTANE? Is it harmful for my car engine if I use always? Or please let me know what I should do.

Some people say if we use OCTANE BOOSTER and DDR (Direct Deposit Remover) by HKS , always then it will damage engine as its an additive to fuel and burns more than fuel and damages engine.

Answer
FAROOK:
 I am sorry but I have no definitive knowledge of the products you mentioned. I can say, however, that from all that I have ever read or experienced, any such additives that I am aware of MAKE ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE, either in improving efficiency or performance OR causing damage.
 Of course it is always possible that the two items you mentioned are exceptions, but I seriously doubt it.
   Hope this helps,
