Hi Ross,
There was some discussion last summer about ways to raise octane levels safely, such as augmenting your fuel with Toluene or Xylene. Toluene has an octane rating of around 114. When I'm "in the mood" I add a few gallons of Toluene to my regular Sunoco 94. As this is the chemical Sunoco blends with their gasoline -- I talked with one of their top engineers -- to raise the octane I trust it as safe, and have had no problems with over a year of usage.
If you happen to have the JT 3" Exhaust with the cat bypass you can run leaded gas.
