hmmmmmmmmm 
i would say not
most occy boosters are a load of tosh, trying to cash in on the Max Power generation,
for arguments sake, lets say your mapped to 99 RON as Maxol state it is, and you put in 95 RON fuel, so your down 4RON, or 40 points, is a way of looking at it
if you read the back of the occy boosters itll tell you what it increases by, usually in points, as it sounds better,
most say if you put in the recommended does it will increase a max of 6 points, or 0.6 of a RON
so to get it up to what you need, youll need about six and half doses, id say thats more than a bottle per tank,
not sure if i would like to run all that "booster" in one tank
i think my maths are right
could get costly, as how much is a bottle of Nitrous Formula (most say thats on OK one)? €15 a bottle?

Just put €20 of regular unleaded into it to do you until you get to a maxol and don't drive it on. Det will only occur higher up the rev range under hard acceleration so you'll be fine putting a bit in and pottering around.

or just drive it handy on 95 and stay off boost or get it remapped to 95, you probably wouldn't notice the difference mapped on 95, the newer 32 bit denso ecu's are a lot smarter than older model subaru's and should be able to retard timing enough to handle any knock issues seen with using 95.

John L. said:Thanks Lads but at the time I was thinking the map was for safety as apposed to more hp but you live and learn cheers.
hi john.
e5 being a higher ron rating would be used to allow more ignition advance and
used to acheive better results over 95ron.
why would you think it was related to safety?
