Post Question about NOS octane Booster

I just bought a bottle of NOS Octane Booster. It says one bottle treats one full tank of gasoline. So does that mean that I have to buy a new bottle of Octane Booster everytime I fill up the car with a tank of gas??? I know I heard somewhere that if you use NOS octane booster you should put a bottle in every month, meaning the NOS octane treatment lasts for about a month or somewhere around there. Cuz if it were so that you need to apply NOS octane boost every tankful of gas it would get pretty pricey( $7 a bottle for street formula and $10 a bottle for Race formula plus the price of gasoline). Anyone know anything about this???

Thanks

it should work just like any other octane booster...once the treated gas is gone, time for a new bottle...

I used to add race octane booster in my Prelude... it *felt* like it was going faster. I dunno... I could have been imagining it.. or it could have been working.

IMHO, don't waste your money.
