New BP petrol, is it better than Optimax and what is it's octane rating.

<thud>

try it yourself - you'll get yes's and no's so its not going to help you much unless you try it in your own motor

A simple search could have revealed SO much information.....

To precis, for you...

Yes it is better
No it's not better

98RON in the UK.

BP must be good, I was next to a Diablo filling up with it

Unless the Lambo driver was testing it too!

How longs a peice of string - your never going to answer that question.

Both do a similar job - some people will rate one above the other based on their "preferences".

The only way to give an answer it to get a fully equipped lab set up - with one engine - run both fuels under scientific conditions and prove which one is best - for power/fuel consumption.

As that will no doubt cost a small fortune to set up - and as one company would face the humiliation of defeat - can't see it happening ;)

Oh - and they could test Broquets while they are at it..

Jza

Evo / What Car mags could fund it....but I doublt they will. I'm sure theres someone in every company that has its finger up someone elses ring piece that would prevent it!
