shell in caloundra has it to, i use it and it makes a bit of a diffrence, its pretty good on econnamy i get about 300 ks from about 32 litres

It's pretty rar that they actually have it in stock though, i used to travel to caloundra pretty much every day and sometime's they'de not have it for a month. I don't travel down the way much anymore but with my previos experiences they have it abot 50% of the time. Now what i wanna know is why doesn't the shell in mooloolaba have it?!?!?!

Yeah, it doesn't make much of a difference if you're not tuned for it.

I was getting a wonky idle out of it when cold, used to run right down on the 600RPM stall line, drop down below it and cause the anti-stall to kick in.

Back to 95 till I get an ECU

You can notice a difference, you can feel it ' seat of the pants ' wise easily enough.. i could feel it both on the power fc and the stock gtr ecu

Yeah I had my tune done on this 100octane stuff...

Ran at willowbank a full quarter mile and got no higher than 20 knock levels which is fine, considering you rev to redline for 4 gears before your over the line.

Then two or three weeks later I ran there again with just 98 ron and got knock levels up over 80 which is really really bad, also fouled the plugs.

Has nothing to do with the fuel being bad, its all to do with the tune the pfc had and the fact we were able to push the timing a we bit more advanced with 100ron.

Im considering having a touch up tune just running 98 ron, and putting another degre on the cams to see if I can maintain 337rwkw on 98ron fuel.

Rather than having to put 100ron to get that power level, however last dyno day we got 300rwkw from 98ron on just 18psi so its allot of effort to push for that extra 10% power but when you get into 4th gear down the quarter and your car becomes like a flying phone book you need all the power you can get to reach the line is a fashionable manner. :wave:

Will be interesting to see! But certainlly wont be buying 100ron until Shell make it a more reasonable price... And they wont until a competitor bring in some competition...

yeah i usually fill up with v-power (98), but the other night i had a go with v-power racing (100) becuase the shell at runcorn had been out of the regular v-power for like a week and i refuse to put in anything lower than 98 in my car. anyway noticed the difference right away. much smoother in accel and at top end speeds. i would get this all the time but 1.45 is a bit much for my budget to cope with every week

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
