I am using Tesco 97 SUL. (dont have the 99 up here in Scotland)

I think the car runs smoother. and MPG is better than 95ron

Tesco 99 comes up as best out of that, BP SUL and Optimax.

I fill up with BP ultimate every week, one week we was away and all i could find was a Texaco so i used there higher octane and car felt like it was more responsive...it was probably just in my head!

I found with the 2JZ GE engine that my MPG actually dropped using SUL's. BP ultimate is better only than sainsburies SUL, Esso super I'd put next, optimax (the previous name for V-power) after that and at the top I'd put the tesco 99 stuff. v-power when it was optimax was only 97 ron. With my range rover 4.6 V8 I get the same results putting in SULs ie my mpg drops. The actual power increase is more than likely there but its not big enough to be noticeable for me.

Where you will notice the difference is when you start running a forced air induction system close to its limit. You then need higher ron fuels to prevent detonation. I could feel the det on WOT in my BPU'd supra if I put sainsburies SUL in it. Minimum I could use and still be able to whop the throttle to the floor was esso SUL.

I've said it and will say it again....

Soooper dooper gas only has a benefit on S/C, T/C and highly modified NA engines.

Otherwise spend your pennies on other goodies

Just come back from down south and my car was filled up from empty with V-Power! First time I've used that stuff as its not available locally, and im very impressed! Defo a much Sharper response! If this stuff was available locally Id use this over and above BP Ultimate! Noticed a huge difference!

Like I said BP ultimate is pants. V-power is a significantly better fuel than BP ultimate. BP ultimate is only just better than sainsburies SUL. You will notice a difference with a supercharged car.
