Tesco 97 ron, Works for me!!!!!
I know there is plenty of threads about this Optimax situation but just wanted to know if there is anyone out there just using tesco 97ron???
....after failing finding any optimax, I decided tesco would be the next stop for the 99ron, .....but they dont stock it at mine and wont do till feb time so I went for the 97ron and to my surprise as done me sweet, Ive not noticed any lack of power and its running just like it usually does, the consumption is loads better too, I dumped £20 in the tank from the light being on, Im on 111mls and the light hasnt come on yet, but must say its due anytime now, 89.9p per litre which I thought wasnt too bad and I didnt wanna use the 95ron as that is just ****e!!!
So what you reckon folks?
Have you used 97ron and is it ok for you??
Should I still add some booster??
Obviously Ill go back to optimax when it arrives back but must say Im happy with the results im getting from tesco97, just dont know if Im doing the right thing,whether it will cause Damage etc etc...
My ride is a my99 running around the 270-280bhp with a Re-map, uprated exhaust & Uprated panel filter...
Comments most welcome please......
