Did you really expect to tell the difference between the 5th and 10th fill up?

Me too. Definatey more responsive, though it does appear to idle a little lower now. Bit more lumpy.

I was on Sainsbury's super on a Type 20.

I think going from a 97 to the V-power you'd notice something, but for me anyway, Optimax to V-power no change.
