ProBoost is Ok, Put the whole tin in to a tankful especially on 95Ron fuel & don't wrag the **** off your Scoob & all should be fine,
Is it A JDM ?? Import, & if so still on the Standard Jap 100 Ron Map ?? All the more reason to not thrash it on Uk Fuel.

You'd need a fair bit of OB to get the octane up to 100RON (a whole bottle of NF = 6RON? @ £13 a bottle). May be better to have the car mapped to whatever fuel you can get hold of and however much OB you are prepared to use all the time.
