There is a new united opened this week just off the princess Hwy at the Point Cook/Hoppers turn off. It has boost 98 and then i saw the 100 ron and doubled checked it and it sure is 100. Havent used it yet but will on my next drive.

Probably been asked before but is there a big difference between 98 and 100? I have never used 100 and am a pretty loyal bp 98 user.

How much extra is the 100? You can't get it from many places, so do you have your cars tuned for 100RON risking getting caught at a servo that doesn't stock it? Is there a noticeable difference? Do you guys use it for track?

Sorry for the noob questions.

Cheers.

My car loves the 100 octane from Shell. Definately a decrease in knock levels but then again i tuned it for running high boost. At low boost im sure 98 would be fine. But at 36 cents a litre more expensive i might give this united stuff a try which looks like around 19 cents litre more expensive than unleaded.

im gonna stick by my CALTEX VORTEX 98..........

amen man...amen.

but most company's fuel is the same..

BECAUSE IT COMES FROM THE SAME FKING REFINERIES!!!!!!!!

have a search and see where they originate. a report on tt (i know i know, not real big on 'facts' but i watched it) stated that most of the bigger fuel companies use fuel from the same refineries/distributors.

so really its not worth going to 1 specific petrol company

I try to keep away from ethanol, If you guys can remember, going back a few years, there was a huge fuss in the media about how ethanol was being added to fuel without consumers knowledge, it was known that this could cause engine problems with prolonged use.... now they are marketing it properly and everyones forgotten about the problems... I'm just paranoid about it now lol

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
