Well so far, it's not looking good for Shell V Power.

I don't think much of Shell's Vpower either....

Put some in my old 68 vette's tank, and motor was pinging badly under accelleration. It's not a radical tune either.

I have used Shell's 95 ron pulp without issues in the past,

but this V-power is CRAP.

So much for it's 98 RON rating.

I'll stick to Mobil Synergy 8000 or BP Ultimate thanks.

.  I'm a little dissapointed at this stage, especially considering I have a friend with an AMG Merc that is faster, heavier, bigger motor and more powerful, but uses 3/5ths of sweet FA in fuel compared to the T

damn that's good suck!

I went from a VR calais V6 to the BF T & my fuel economy is about the same... ~14 L/100

if u want fuel economy go the auto!

I'm amazed how good on fuel mine is when it gets a flogging. I can usually get 400kms even after 400kms of trashings.

[4ST-XR6]

and now with the 10psi generic tune, 25L/100km. Ah being on apprentice wages and having a lead foot sucks

[SCRIBR]

I get about 450 with a fair bit of... hard acceleration

.. mines 80 litres though but I dont run the tank dry

They're worse. I had one as a rental in Perth a month ago. For a little car it chewed the juice. Out of curiosity I worked out the consumption and it was in the 11s.

Being a rental, it did go anywhere though, no gutters too big.

Heh you must've had a dud. The Getz we got for my other half goes for about two weeks between our house and Freo on a single tank of fuel (40 or so km round trip in city traffic).
