See Shell is advertising a new brand of petrol here in good old SA? V-power nitro+? No need to add NOS manually then?  Any ideas from anyone? :-) |

Vpower nitro+++ ultra mega hyper snort thrust out next week. Unless you have a performance car capable of adjusting to a higher RON then it does nothing. If you do you can gain performance but it relies on the machinery to use it

so then why all the hype and advertising? Great performance gain,etc etc? Marketing gimmic so we can pay extra for fuel that doesn't give any benefit at all???

Performance gains will happen with quality machinery but the hype is also to make average joe believe it'll make his 1.4 golf into a monster or make dad believe his car will get better fuel economy to pay for it. They won't. But if you have a modern M3 or an Evo or the like you will likely get more power. Have to have a fairly modern performance engine that can adjust to higher octane fuel and you WILL see an increase

To be honest Tescos 99 is supposed to be the top dog but all I can get within a reasonable distance is Esso premium 97. So that's what I use.

I'll stick to my 93 Unleaded. These high octane fuels really are meant for your very high performance cars.
