Got to be NF Race
http://www.nfeurope.com/stockists.htm

Just to add this is mainly used to prevent det/pinking in cars.
This is especially in imports that are mapped for higher octane or modifed cars.
As a priority a knocklink should be fitted to monitor for this.
Nitrous Formula can be used in a ratio of 1ml per litre but everybody has their own ratios

Depends on what you have Scooby-Girl
Personally i use millers octane plus, i have no problems with my MY03 JDM STi and my knocklink shows only 2 greens max (and thats normally 1 solid and 1 flashing )
Easier to get hold of than NF but people do say NF is better (but as ive stated, ive never had any problems with millers).

NF is the one to have

I've used 1.2ml of NF per litre of normal unleaded and kept my knocklink quiet before now. It works out as good, if not better price wise than the Millers.
