Conor62 Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 As the title says... what is V Power? I know its 97ron or somthing but where do you get it from? Does it make much of a difference over normal Super? Im in N.Ireland so maybe we dont get it here, im just using Texaco's Super unleaded (techron i think) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonlpearce Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 x 2 on the above, although i have tried it over regular unleaded and didnt notice a difference, not even after running it for a good few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karl3 Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 v-power is very good fuel i use it in my evo 5. when i first had my forged 2.3 stroker engine built and fitted with the new managment ect. i tested what fuels would give the best results on the rollers whilst mapping the car ect.. i compared tesco 99 , bp ultima and v-power.. tesco was ok but showed little signs of det at h rpm ect.. bp was good no det but missrable power gains.. v-power good gains, and no sign of det at high rpm even at 2.2bar of boost through a garratt gtr35..

fingerpie Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 It's good fuel As above gives good gains Use it on my other car, it's more useful on tuned turbocharged vehicles as the higher RON means there is less chance of detonation on cars running higher boost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
