No, octane boosters are gimmicks that don't really do anything to increase the octane rating of the fuel in your tank beyond a tiny tiny bit.

The best thing to do is to keep the revs low and fill up with premium as soon as you can.

Here in California, 91 is premium. Fine on 11:1 compression ratio but I'd want it higher if I got that VW Toureg with 12:1 compression. What a bunch of idiots those VW people are...

Hot weather and high RPMs is where you want to stay away from for knocking.

If you hear it, let off the gas, it'll be worse if you have your foot into it

I filled him up with 93 super premium and the Z runs much better. Thanks all!
