What's the octane rating of toluene?

I once had a gallon of isooctane, but that was before I had a turbocharged car, so I never got to use it properly. Octane rating 100.
Sounds like my options are richer mixture or water injection. Are RRFPR's a good idea, or should I just go with larger injectors with the stock FPR if I want to go the richer mixture route?
I have a 3" high-flow cat with 3" JT downpipe, but 2.5" system behind this. The muffler guy talked me into a Flowmaster, and I didn't know Flowmasters send pulses in a retrograde direction to help scavenge exhaust gases out of the combustion chamber, so they interfere with turbocharger function. I plan to change to Magnaflow this summer. I wonder how much of a problem my current exhaust setup could be causing?
You must be getting some crazy torque out of your engine. Thanks for your post.
