Question Best reasonably priced octane booster?

I'll be off to Ireland in a week or two. It really is mission impossible to find a garage anywhere that sells super unleaded, let alone proper v-power. What's the best octane boost to buy for a reasonable price? I'll be needing something that boosts the petrol from crap nul to around 100 ron, 6 ron boost.

Is this stuff any good? It reckons a boost of 6 ron for 6 tanks, seems a far reaching claim to me.

NF= Nitrous Formula, like in the link I posted? are the claims of 6 ron for 6 tankfuls valid?

Thanks Alan, I'll look into Millers.

Yes, NF is reckoned to be the best.

I get mine from Roger Clark. Great service and the bottle price comes down for quantity.

Don't know about the 6 RON, but i had 3ml p/l mapped in and it loved it. Made +20/20.

I thought the Millers only added 0.3 or 0.6 ron? NF is the one of the best, I think it's around 3 ron.
