Andy665 0 Posted April 24, 2006 Reckon it will be popular with the Corsa / Saxo boys, when combined with blue LED washer jets and a bean can its bound to give them another 50BHP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 24, 2006 I notice BP's claims of extra power only came about from whacking up the ignition advance and turbo boost! The same could be achieved with 30 mins on a dyno and a £5 can of octane boost. It's just a laughable price for such a small octane boost over Shell V power.

Yandards 0 Posted April 24, 2006 Crikey! I was upset paying over a pound a litre for optimax yesterday let alone over 2 quid a litre!! Little point to it unless you are going to always use it and get your timing advanced to make use of the higher octane. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stingman123 0 Posted April 24, 2006 At the rate we're going it won't be long before we're paying that for standard 95 RON Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 24, 2006 what octane is shell v power..? 100, but Shell haven't launched it over here yet, not nationally at least. Tesco 99 is the best we've got in the meantime. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't it make sense to get the car set-uo to run on the fuel you'll be putting in it all the time? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
