Just out of interest, what fuel do you use and your opinions.

I use Carling, I find I perform much better on that after a gallon or so. My car will run on v-power because the engine will be mapped to that.

V Power.............because that's what Bob Rawle mapped it for

I use V-Power or Tesco Momentum. Both seem to do the trick !

V-Power or Momentum at a push. Ultimate made my car run like ****e!

Fleetster

V-Power for me also, mine runs poor on anything else even on tesco 99 stuff...

V-Power and methanol mix. Why? Because despite being a pain in the **** to fill up, and plan long journeys, it's cheaper, and gives me more power.

Supermarket regular unleaded from whoever is cheapest this week

I use Momentum on my Classic Import, when I cant get Momentum I use V-Power.

I find on v-power it does less mpg, and doesn`t run as well as when Momentum goes back in normal service is resumed.

tezjucodie

i use v power cause my car is mapped for it and it runs better and also seems to last longer with my lead foot

momentum or v-power for me usually momentum though as its closer and 9p a litre cheaper than the rip off shell garage near me

Mapped for V- power, and V-power with 20% Meth.
Have only used The Meth mix , and have been told I am able to use Tesco 99.

I have only used Vpower and will always try too.

Cheers Guys you've all answered my question with the answer i was looking for.

I was doing a map session on my mates car after he said its ok some times and other times holding back, after plugging in to the ecu, I noticed it was pulling timing in areas within the map that were perfect before, I’d mapped it previously on V-power, but he’d put tescos 99 in it when he had to.

My point is, if you get the car mapped to what you intend to use and you cant get it, don’t be wragging the car until you do IMO.

v power or tesco super with 20% meth

Sainsburys super unleaded and had it mapped it was a 26 mile round trip to get v power: ( .

Do you mix in containers before hand so quantity is spot on or do you mix at the pump and hope for the best lol? I really cant make my mind up whether to use a mix or not.

paulT25

See what my gauge is reading, take a stab at what will go in as a total.
fill up my Meth can go to the garage forcourt fill up the tank with th meth.

Go to the pump and topup withh the required amount of V-Power.

I find that a easy way of getting the mixture as close as I can.

I use a 10 lit Jerry can which is strapped in place in the boot for long journeys.
which I normaly have about 5-6 Lits of Meth to top up with.

Hope this helps.

if on long straight run vpower is best but round town unleaded/there is no differnece in them/that came straight from the area manager at shell a good friend of mine

SeanS

Struggling to understand this. U use Meth in the fuel tank?

Black Widow

iTrader: (2)

If it's the same why do you use v-power at all then.

0121subs

iTrader: (1)

if you travel at say 80mph for 30mile you will do more to the gallon/but round town stop start would be the same as unleaded. you get a bigger bang for ya money wiyh vpower motorway driving is the only time you will save money with vpower

Lagamorph

v-power and/or meth burn cooler therefore giving you more scope to run closer to detonation so surely if you put your foot down round town using sub standard fuel its more likely to det as the engine will suffer heat soak from not moving fast enough to get air flow to the engine.

I use either a 5 or 10 litre jerry can. Measure it out so there's exactly whatever volume I need in there, then go to the petrol station, pour it in, and then whack the V-Power on top of it so it mixes.
