Default help !!!!

Hi All

Travelling back to Belfast for our Christmas break. Just needed some advice. Currently have a imported sti3 which I run on Optimax and Millars Octane booster. I am aware that I cannot get Optimax in NI and therefore would like to know what amount of booster to use with BP Ultimate as this is the only performance fuel available in the homeland. Currently use a millers every other tank as advised..wont be driving that hard with the car full of presents and a 3 year old....not me obviously.....
any one in NI with an import care to comment...???
cheers
happy christmas...

Hi Mate,
Shell, Maxol, ESSO, BP all do SUL but the highest you'll find over here is 97 RON. I run my STi V5 on BP Ultimate and a splash of millers and she never give a spot of bother.

Have a good one

before i had my car remapped i used black bottle Nitrous Formula. the 300ml bottle gave instruction to add 1ml per litre of fuel. i always added 100ml per tank (i.e 2ml/litre) and never had so much as a chirp from my knocklink. good luck finding Nitrous Formula when you are over. you could try mckearys in coleraine. jonathan usually has some in stock, but it is getting alot harder to get a hold of.

cheers
