[QUOTE="glock_8, post: 645247, member: 14626"] picked from Fifht Gear episode a few years ago of the UK car programme Anyway, they tested "normal" supermarket 95 fuel, BP ultimate and Shell optimax. Three new cars (2004) were used - Clio, GTI golf and Subaru WRX. Results: Clio Supermarket - 81 BHP BP - 81 BHP Shell - 81 BHP GTI Supermarket - 172 BHP BP - 174 BHP Shell - 177 BHP WRX Supermarket - 235 BHP BP - 248 BHP Shell - 249 BHP Also tested torque: Supermarket - 232 pounds BP - 248 pounds Shell - 258 pounds It seems that Shell is the clear winner, but only in performance vehicles. And since our n20 turbo rated power is based on ron 98, i can see an advantage of using a vpower racing or atleast any other ron 97 for that matter. [/QUOTE]
