Whatever you do, don't use STP octane boost, it's shitty and expensive. I was told that NOS octane boost is good.

Octane boosters DONT WORK.
NOS racing formula will do SOMETHING, but thats due to the nitro it contains.
It wont help against detonation though.

You want octane? Buy 104-116 gas.

the normal 104+ booster will only add like 0.6RON to your average compact tank of gas

Just keep a few gallons of race gas at your house for the occasional times when you get called out and need to raise the boost and spank someone.
