Yeah mate it is probably the smartest fuel blend for NA performance, first time I've heard of it at the pump.

Not a bad idea if that's the only place aftermarket bimodal mufflers will fit, why not just put a proper set of (NPP) bimodal mufflers at the rear?

Cheapest way to upgrade fuel system

Cheapest way to upgrade your fuel is via tune, if your FPCM will allow. Up the fuel pressure setting to 65psi. That's it mainly. Else +1 BAP wires coz it's a PITA to get pump basket in and out. ...
