Default inline octane booster

anyone ever used one of these? seen them at a couple of car shows and they are supposed to make our 95ron fuel 99ron. costs £60 for the canister that you fit in your fuel line and its supposed to last for 100,000 miles.

would it be a good buy or is it just a gimmick?
heres the link: FUEL CAT - save money, lower emissions - petrol, diesel, gas and oil.
