Got a Sti7 Type UK with a couple of thousand on the clock. Just started opening up and have put optimax and 1ml of NF in per litre for the last 3 tanks. YES!!! there really is a noticeable smoothing of the Torque, pulls harder a little lower probably 3200-3500, but just keeps the power for longer. As I say a lot smoother. The only thing is the ECU on the STi7 I understand is more adaptable for RON levels, probably running around 100-101 RON at the moment. I'm not sure if your model will need the ecu resetting etc, you'll need a techie for that. At £62 for 5 bottles from Gecko, it means 5 tankfulls approx' per bottle, that equates to about 4p per litre give or take. If you order from Gecko you'll get it within a couple of days. Hope that helps some...

There's a fascinating (and long) thread on octane boosters at http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/upload/sh...&threadid=2480
