Default fuel!!!

hi people, im new to this forum and just got my 2009 impreza sti ppp. im sure this has been asked before so i apologise in advance, but what is the general consensus on fuel? ive been using v power but have read that tesco momentum is more or less the same give or take a few additives. the reason i ask is that it is a 40 min trip just to fill up on v power! thanks for any replies, Steve.

What he said, I run mine on both but it was mapped and runs mostly on T99 because it's cheaper and easier to get hold of

Tescos is fine. I do remember reading a thread a while ago. It contained a link to a performance study done on both. If you have a search you should find it.

Post some pics of your car.

Upload to photobucket. Once uploaded copy the IMG code. Paste into text. Press submit. Picture won't appear till you submit the thread.
