shell fuel carbons up my mx race bike and is a lot dirtier than mobil. This was in QLD though. Too much sulfur in the fuel. I would use mobil if I had the chance.

shell is the worst among mobile caltex and bp.... ( only personal experience.)
i use caltex for the 4c deal.... but when i don't have the wollies docket... i use mobil.. coz mobile gives the best milage and best engin response.... it's the quietest...keke i got cannon muffler all other fuel are loude except mobil keke ....
As Perth_Euro said that the only 98 Ron available in Perth is BP Ultimate so that is the petrol i use. The next best thing is Caltex Vortex but then that is 96 Ron.... But again it all comes from the One Refinery in Perth so might as well go with BP.

If anyone knows someone credible that works in the petroleum industry (i.e a scientist of some sort) that could once and for all declare which is the best for performance, noise, etc. because everyone you talk to has different opinions.
best performance? NITROMETHANE!!!!! (well, you asked!)Quote:

Just got a euro last week. Done about 300km and the tank is at half. Will probably use premium unleaded or optimax. .Taking it easy on the engine till 1000km service.
yeah i've just realised shell optimax is causing a build up of black dust on my rear bumper (even after a 5 min drive its noticable... i'm not the only one)
will try to switch to mobil synergy...
octane booster doesnt help much anymore... was meant to boost standard ULP to ~98 octane before 98 octance fuel was avaliable here... nowadays if you fill up 98 octane its pointless... as the engine wont respond to a higher octane rating then what its designned to run at....
try Wynns injector cleaner... poured a bottle in my tank and acceleration in 1st n 2nd gears is HIGHLY noticable...
I have never used anything else except BP Ultimate.

If only fuel price would go down..........
You and me both brother! Fuel is now $1.23 / litre for normal unleaded here at the moment! People are crying in Perth cause they have to pay just over a dollar!Quote:
