Can anyone recommend octane boosters for use where 95RON fuel is not available?

Here in Australia Premium Unleaded Petrol (PULP) is hard to find outside major cities. I am aware that brands may change across different markets. Nevertheless any info would be appreciated.

Japanese cars run at 100ron(as u prob know) if u dont de tune ur ecu it wont damage ur car it will just run at 10-20% less power. for full power
email me c8hep@aol.com and i will give you the top brand tomorrow!
it will be expensive at £13 in the uk at 6ron. u will need 90% for each 40litre tank! thats an extra £12 or so to fill up to 100ron

Er, thats not quite right V LTD. If its an STi and you dont run it on the right fuel, you will get knock and it becomes quite easy to blow it up... If you remap it for the fuel you are using then that's fine. Many people have destrolyed STi's from running them on 95 RON.

A lot of people use millers octane boost (thanks dbm),but nitrous systems formula is meant to be the dogs bollox.

I find it strange how people just assume that a JDM (assuming it is a jdm car that mrtoad is driving) car will just lose performance without high octane fuel,and not damage the engine.
Surely 'everyone'knows this...right?

Agreed Dij, a UK car has enough "play" in its ECU map to respond to a slightly lower grade fuel, but running an STi on NUL the ECU cannot adjust...

If your in Aus you should be able to get hold of some local Nitrous Formula Booster as doesnt it originate from Aus

Over here you can get it from £10 a bottle...but that includes shed loads of tax so in Aus it should be significantly cheaper as your Gasoline is very, very cheap - i.e. the Octane Boosters will be taxed much, much lower over there.........

If you are running poorer fuel just take it steady and dont thrash it until you've put about 3 tanks of decent stuff in yer system............

You should really look at getting a KnockLink device as an instant check on det levels in your car - I'm sure you can do a search on this
