Hi,
Anyone recommend an octane booster that won't damage the cat?
What's the recommended dosage?, Is it safer to have slighty too much O.B.mixed than not enough, or can too much also cause problems?
(road use only; mixed driving styles)
cheers,
DC

I used Millers - it worked ok.

Then i tried NOS - more noticeable kick than Millers.

Then for a giggle i tried NF. Having been sceptical, i can honestly say it is the most effective, in my opinion.

Agrred - another vote for NF One Shot. Used to use Millers, but felt a difference with NF One Shot after only one bottle!

NiteskyR Avgas will damage the cat. It's a leaded fuel.
