In the States, we have three octanes to choose from at the pump, 87, 89, and 92. There is a BP station near the city of Sumas not far from where I live that sells 100 octane gas, but you can always buy some 108 or one of the other well known brands of octane boosters. I believe that you could buy the brand that would raise the level of octane in your tank to 112. Octane boosters a very inxpensive, between $6-$18, exchange right now is about $1.60 American for every 1 English pound, so it is not expensive for what it can do.
