    Interesting to re-read this.

    I use primarily V-Power or Vortex98.

    I tried BP - I didn't even get to 400km on a tank (4th tank...)

    I've filled up again on Sunday with Vortex98, see how that goes!

    ive been using Vortex98 for the 1st 4 weeks and roughly got approx 480km per full tank.

    I’ve been using Ultimate for the past 3 fills and im now averaging 560km!

    So im gonna stick to BP!!!!

    If you can get a BP servo built on my run to work, I'll use it for sure, otherwise, I'll stick to the Shell 98.

    its been shell v power for years but the last 3-4 months fuel economy has gone down to 430-440..

    i did fill up bp ultimate a while ago and got really crap fuel economy.. im thinking of going back to trial for a few fills and see how it goes..

    I have to go out of my way to get fuel as it is.

    I go past Shell and 7/11. I know which one I prefer.

    There would be something wrong if you don't get better mileage from BP Ultimate, I noticed anywhere from 50 to 70 k difference I've got 2 small bars above the qtr tank and I have done 465.3k's already this fill up. Never got less than 500k's except on a track day . as of tonight i have 29,975 on the clock..

    Just though i would add,

    I have done different dyno runs

    and the best output ( with no pinging ) was v power racing ( discontinuned), bp ultimate, then shell v power....

    Thats actually good to hear, dyno run with knock sensor (or similar device to detect knocking or pinging) is something nobody has really tried.

    Not Gone...just "busy"
