Petrol

[ekay1]

Hey guys, i was just wondering which petrol everyone puts in for their FD's

[xenonkuraz]

V-Power
E10
Ultimate

[OMG.JAI xD]

Highly recommend 95RON at minimum.
Especially if its the r18 engine.

That engine has alot of emissions controlling systems. Poor octane fuel may cause excessive carbon build up in both the intake and exhaust side.

Stick to 98. For 5 or so more cents, the results in the long run is excellent.

To me, do what the manual guide ask me to do. RON91 , E10 or V Power. Mostly use RON91

Put the requirement RON on the manual book.
But I would go with BP Utilimate

[ekay1]

I go with ultimate, does it make much difference though like performance wise or life for the engine, if premium or unleaded? Havent used v-power yet, but Bp ultimate seems to do fine =)

I'm using Vortex98 at the moment. I noticed the engine is abit more quieter when it's idling and it accelerates more smoothly. It also doesn't shake as much when the revs are low, but maybe it's a psychological thing.

Premium 95.

My car used to eat up fuel like crazy after upgrading to Skunk2 Mega Power 60mm Exhaust. Was getting 350-380km's on fuel tank, driving like a granny.

Then tried Premium 95, was surprised was getting alot better fuel consuption for a few extra dollars. About 450km+ mostly 2-2.5K shift with a little bit of spirited driving.

Don't know if just me, but I noticed better mileage with 95 than 98.

fuel consumption went up after installing a muffler? what the?

[evil_1998]

It's full cat back exhaust, not just muffler. I think it was running a bit rich, had a bit of popping ocassionally. Seemed like the fuel was burning too early/quickly hence the bad fuel consumption?

You were probably running rich, but why would u run rich all of a sudden :S

i use caltex 95. Gets me about 8.2L/100km with my daily shitty 6km cold engine drive

10L/100km on BP Ultimate FTW
