    I don't know how it works downhere (as u only brand the fuel as unleaded and "super mega ultra deluxe unleaded"). In Sweden we have 95 and 98 Octane and V-Power which is 99 Octane. The diffrence is though that V-power has a guarenteed octane level opposed to 98 octane which can fluctuate a fair bit in octane level. I.e. u can map your engine more to the limit with v-power due to it's more even quality, u know what u get when u refill.

    But V-power is nothing to E85 that we got in all major fuel stations at home, 85% ethanol 15%petrol, 102-104 octane at the pump. And some even say u don't need a intercooler running on Ethanol due to it's cooling characteristics... Only downside is that it needs a retune of the engine management to run it and maybe bigger injectors.

        Today I filled up on V-Power Racing for the first time - $1.26 after 6c off (4c plus extra 2c for buying something in the shop)

        $92.00 full tank (73L odd)

        halfway to work - car seems to actually go heaps better... (been running on BP Ultimate for last 2-3 fills due to high Shell Optimax Extreme prices).

        will see how economy is like..
        The liquid hydrogen turbopump is slightly larger than an automobile engine (weighing approximately 700 lb) and produces nearly 70,000 hp (52.2 MW).
