jalesi2001 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 95 RON, because with the very small level of mods I run, Im still not convinced that by using anything better, I would see any noticable difference.If I was driving a powerful highly modded car, then i'd probably use the V power, as I used to use optimax all the time in my scoobies!And have you guys seen the price of fuel these days???!!!!

james Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 i doubt v=power would make any noticable differance to our cars v=power will make a differance in high performance motors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryan.. Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 M series civics dont have learning ecu's and none are jap imports with ecu's designed to run higher octane fuel so its a waste of time and money. I've tested BP's stuff in my vti-s over 4 tanks worth and it made no difference in the performance or mpg. Newer performance cars with learning ecu's I can see the point as the ecu will be able to adjust to the higher octane fuel. Our old ecu's cantComplete waste of money imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottravenhill Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Hi john have you got a comparison of 95 octane vs Tesco 99? Mpg and performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malefix Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 OMV 100 in Slovenija because it costs less than italian regular 95 differences? Yes there are. Especially at low rpm (where the notoriously underpowered d14a2 has no torque) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyekye09 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 so do octane boosters work the same as higher octane petrol...?????? and are there any risks of fuel system damage....????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johngreen537 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 They do mate. They are generally assetone based, so are very expensive for what you get.It's actually cheaper to run Higher octane fuel than buying boosters...Super is about 5-6p more expensive per liter, 45-50 litres costs an additional £3 or so per tank.Octane booster, any branded one, £6!
