BE PATIENT. no dyno before break in period. optimal fuel to use would be neat/straight Vpower or petronas premium, never ever use shell economy, its economical but it literally sucks the power off your car. caltex and mobil/exxon premium seems ok but helps with a can of octane booster. BHP just sucks the hell more than the rest.</blockquote>
