    I will go against the norm and say dont use octane booster . The effects of the additives on the wideband lambda probe can be fatal ! The ones that say o2 sensor say have only really been tested on narrowband 02 sensors !

    Either you could buy a 20l drum of 109 which will raise the octane level similar to 98 for a long journey or

    Install a water injection system . This I'd recommend if you have enough time as it will make your engine run more efficiently and you'll use less fuel !

    either way good luck , and look out for the roo's !

      $2.15 a litre is incredible! O_o

      What time of year did you go?
      Hey man, now worries. I did the trip in mid September last year. Took 2 days between Darwin and Townsville. I'm used to small cars. My previous car was a 2004 Barina SRI, and I could fit almost as much stuff in it.
      Daly Waters Hotel is an awesome pub. When I got there, I just kicked out my swag, locked the car, and walked into the pub, grabbed a beer, and sat in the pool!! The food is great there too.
