Smile octane booster ?

I normally buy Proboost, where's the best place to get it? The oilman on here, does he sell this? It's getting very expensive I know. Cheers, Mick.

I see Camskill are doing Millers octane plus 10 bottles for £46, is this good? Is Millers better than Proboost? Cheers, Mick.

NF Race Formula all the way. It's the most expensive for a reason.


Many thanks for the Group Buy heads-up

Nf is good stuff.
I think I paid £17 ish for 1 bottle but you only need about 3ml of it per 1 litre of fuel.

People say that Silkolene is a wee...

Actually it seems that the best results are with MTBE (or ETBE, if there are any boosters on it) are the only giving real results.
And actually if you read about MTBE and ETBE you'll understand why is that...

NF and NOS, also Lucas as far as I remember are MTBE based.

Also good octane booster is Methanol and ethanol in small amount added to petrol (check the Tesco 99 formula for example)
