Toluene, damn, let me dust off my organic chem textbook! Seems to be a pretty inexpensive way (versus traditional octane boosters) to increase the octane rating. Given its higher octane rating, there has to be a trade off like slow throttle response or possibly unburned fuel. This certainly warrants a closer look.
