They don't improve performance that is already there,it's just correcting the octane level from your cheap gas.
Go to a Sherwin William's paint supply and buy a gallon of Toluene and dump it into your gas trank! It will increase your octane from 93 to around 95+ and clean the fuel line's and injector's at the same time.

A little "insider info for you:
Toluene can be used as an octane booster in gasoline fuels used in internal combustion engines. Toluene at 84% by volume, fueled all the turbo Formula 1 teams in the 1980s. Small 1.5L turbo engines were known to operate at 5 bar (73 psi) boost in qualifying and 4 bars (59 psi) while racing. More than 1500bhp from 1.5L engines was possible.

It IS and it's NOT rocket science but in laymen's term's boost need's ++++++ octane.
