I'm not sure where I read this, but I read that Toluene has an octane rating of 114 and Xylene is 117.

Methanol: 119, ethanol (denatured alcohol): 115. But like the 114 for toluene those are the so-called "Project 45" blending octane ratings. In the real world (where you're already running 91 or higher) toluene is about 102 and methanol is good for about 105.
