Just use V-power or Tesco 99. No need to waste cash on booster unless you map for it and use it constantly.

Then stick with V-power of Tesco 99. Beware, Tesco also do a lesser fuel at 97..

Don't bother with normal unleaded unless you have to, best be safe rather than sorry. You can do without the booster altogether, perhaps just keep some for emergencies.
