Very low on fuel in the Zed yesterday. Had to put a £10 worth of 95 in yesterday as everyone had sold out of Super/Optimax etc.

 

Taking it really steady...ie ZERO boost!! lol

Yeh i did on the way back from JAE just turned my boost controller down to 5psi and had no problems.

I run mine on that most of the time. Exceptions are hot days and dyno sessions.

LOL - my local Shell only has Optimax left! :rofl:

 

Steve :)

I always use 95...is that bad???

I always use 95 over here. No problems whatsoever.

:( I wish i could, but mine just wont run on 95!

95 will do no harm at all........if you have modded the car a lot then i would use optimax, but only if your Ecu is chipped and mapped for the higher octane only IMHO :rolleyes:

rather leave her at home or in the garage than run on 95 !!!

Likewise, needs must I guess. Mines never seen anything other than an optimax or tesco 99ron , don't intend to introduce them anytime soon!

Same here yesterday, did 27 miles on that £10!.... lol :D

UK engines are designed to run on 95.

They will run on 95, considering the US run them on 92.

I have used 95 before and I got to admit the car didnt feel as sharp as with Optimax or Tescos 99.

I run mine on that most of the time. Exceptions are hot days and dyno sessions.

me too, no probs. mine's standard though, but i can it all the time!

I normally use regular 95ron but then I've got a Uk spec car so normally no problems there.

 

I do use Optimax in very hot weather though after having a couple of issues with detting a year ago.

 

I generally experience no performance difference between the two, although I do get more MPG from Optimax, which offsets the extra cost.

 

Richard :smw:

I use 95 all the time on my Jap, I've had two tank fulls in the past of Optimax and couldn't tell the difference TBH. :confused:
