Anyone ever use this product with the s55? I have seen some good feedback doing some research.

https://boostane.com

Update: This link has more info from a credible source in my opinion.

Familiar with Torco. Boostane seems to be an even better option.

We have tuned 2-3 N55s where owners in California wanted to blend their really poor quality 91 with Boostane due to E85 not being available and we were quite surprised at how well it worked out. We'd love to see a wider sample of cars running it but so far it hasn't disappointed like most if not all other octane boosters out there. Its from us on it so far.

I believe they are essentially the same (active) ingredients, with something in Boostane added to keep everything in suspension.

Have ran in now a couple of times and logging. Seems to have similar effect to E30 as fast what I can target with out the fuel trim challenges. Running 100 octane mix ratio.

Torco is working great for me, but this also looks interesting

I have been happy with the results with it! Worth a try! 91-93 octane would be like 16 oz to a full tank. FYI.

They have an app to help with mixing ratios. Attached a couple screen shots.

Agree I would not run it on the regular but it is a good option as a temporary option.
