Hey WASSAAB,
Drove from DC to Rochester, NY in May. Pretty hot afternoon, so I added a can of octane boost and filled it with 93 octane. WOW! Able to pull 1/2 red all the time, little taper.
Mileage was way up as well. I was averaging 70+ with much of the time in the 80-90mph range. I thought my fuel gauge was way off. I got about 30+mpg! I usually get about 25. If you're doing an extended highway cruise in hot weather, I'd use it.
