I've always only used optimax (and added +2 octane booster), and had no trouble :wink:

optimax, super plus is more expensive than opti to justify it in my opinion, i only use octane boosters if im going on track or 1/4 mile runs, when i get k-pro done i wont put any booster in as it may interfere with the set up

I mailed Tesco last month asking for a definitive list of their 99RON stations, they mailed back with the list saying it was being trialled at them-all 12. I pointed out to them that it must be wrong as I've been using it in Bristol and they just mailed back saying that was all they knew :roll:

nothing but the best from Tesco's. FYI only Tesco Extra petrol stations stock the good stuff. Keep a look out for any and go fill up.

yep - it's 95RON and they justify charging something like 8 cent per litre more because it cleans out your fuel system. arse to that. i'd gladly pay the extra for optimax!
