Question

Sure this has been asked hundreds of times before but which one is the one to use and also where does everyone get theirs from as I have trouble finding it.Have been putting in the STP one in orange bottle for now as I have found shop which keeps this one in stock,but have heard that this one is not really a very good one. Cheers Martin.

Three main ones seem to be Millers, NF and Silkolene proboost. I use Millers (from scoobymania.co.uk) with optimax in my RA seems okay and the car pulls well .

Since optimax and SUL are so inadequate I,ve decided to run pure octane booster for a while, should I add any petrol at all?, if so which is best, I've been told by a self employed petrochemical engineer who has a lab in is garden shed! (or so I have it on good authority) that diesel has the highest calorific value and will also lubricate my turbo.....any expert advice please before I over boost.

Sorry I'll get my coat and return to muppet land......
