Octane Boosters

Do Octane Boosters work?

My son challenged my assertion that I cant get purple gas in Premium (and he was right).

The catch? I need to get 500 - 800 gallons at at time.

They are telling me that I can get smaller quantities of regulat 87 octane and add octane boost to bump it up.

Does this stuff work? I recall on one of the Can-Am drives many years ago, one Pelican was adding some hydrocarbon (Tolulene?) at each fill up... he blew up his engine. Probably from not enough octane.
