Has anyone ever put Halfords NOS in your gas, if so does it do any damage, how did your car run afterwards?

Don't waste your money. Are you trying to turn regular into premium or add octane to premium? Either way the stuff doesn't work, the directions for my supercharger specifically said not to use octane boosters. There is no benefit to burning higher octane gas than your car requires. It is like that Z-max junk that Shelby endorses, waste of money. I just looked at the bottle in the picture, why would you want nitro methane in your gas?

Looks like a gimmick to me.

Yeah, so many products like this that simply are junk and do not work.

If you need higher octane gas, get real gas and not an octane booster.

If you really have to mix something in your gas use the fuel injector cleaner

Yeah, but if they include a NOS window sticker.... that could get you
an additional 25 imaginary HP.
