Default Re: Soup up trick.

If you don't want to mess with the oil theres the "sterno" trick that was allegedly used by one of the Toyota Teams to qualify for the Daytona 500. A jelly like substance that was enriched with a power enhancing chemical was applied to the inside of the air cleaner element. The plot fell apart after the sudden increase in speed by the car led curious tech inspectors to the alleged jelly still present in the intake manifold.
