No, just use the unleaded, you could use octane bouster if you think it needs it, but its OK has it is, as long as your tank to engine system is clean.

is this true i been using the flash lube for the past 5 years as i was told you need to as the older cars were designed to run on super leaded and cant run on unleaded. the lead was what lubricated the top end and if you run straight unleaded you will wreck the top end like lifters and stuff. But some cars did have a conversion done so they could run on unleaded without the additive. so i dont know i am still using flash lube until proved otherwise

Have used Shell V power in the past, and noticed the performance really improves. Currently I just use unleaded and it runs fine.
