More Toluene, Xylene and C8+ aromatics than you realize. Most of the Benzene is stripped out and sold separately for Styrene production. Unfortunately the Shell V-Power is different from Eastern

Unfortunately the Shell V-Power is different from Eastern Canada compared to Western Canada and the USA. Different Crude oil supplies and blending formulas to fit the local market. The best bang for the octane rating is Iso-Octane. Pure 100 octane. Forget adding Toluene to gasoline to boost octane route. It doesn't work well enough and you don't really know what octane you end up with and the drivability goes out the window. However for true drivability and guaranteed octane ...... buy the unleaded race gas from your local supplier. It should have no Ethanol and be around 99 Octane. It will be consistent
