toyotasuprauk Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Its not very good, it increases your octane by about 0.2 and is expensive. Waste of money IMO. Just get some Tesco 99 ron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnA Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 It can (potentially!) boost the octane level of the fuel by (up to!) a few (decimal!) points So 95RON could become 95.x RON if you drop in a couple of bottles and your fuel tank is not very full (or else it's totally diluted and you don't get jack) Customs & excise don't bother to tax them, so that gives you an idea of their value in the 'fuel' chain. They will tax you if you fill your diesel tank with used oil from the chippie - to put things into perspective! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 AFAIK they give about an extra 100bhp on a 1.2 nova Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 depends on the orientation of the fluffy dice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Any mod on a nova gives an extra 100bhp doesnt it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tepster Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 The NOS stuff in halfrauds is 20 quid a go. In makro its 9.99 plus vat.... Add in some tesco 99ron 91p a litre and its time to switch to mental mode! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 If you're talking about the 'NOS' octane booster then yes, it's one of the very few ones that do something. It's closer to pure toluene/xylene than the other jokes (which all have to be legal, so can't use any nasty chemicals as they would need to) Still, the price is waaaay off because you'd really need a few bottles mixed in a full tank.
