ULP (91 RON)
Prem ULP (95 RON)
BP Ultimate (98 RON)
just wonderin what people usally put into there commos? and if they put BPU or PULP in do you reckon it makes any diff (performance and KM/tank)
cheers fellas.

450+ RWHP, 960 Nm, 12.9 @ 114MP/H [Street Tyres]
What the hell is BPU?
And why is BP Ultimate not just under PULP?
Maybe it would be better if it was ULP, PULP 95, PULP 98?
lol yeah makes sense now... thanks man.Originally Posted by wes_v8

But its still PULP. As is the other 98 octane PULP's, such as Mobil Synergy 8000 etc.Originally Posted by hakhawk
maybe we should just change the poll options to the octane rating just so no one gets confused.
most people recognise ultimate, and other 98 octane fuels as one up from the average 95 pulp.
I was just being overly picky anyway. I realised i was being a dick over nothing![]()
Just updated the poll options to clear it up a bit.......
I use 98 because I have an SC Calais and I figure if 95 is required, then its highly likely that there are performance benefits to using 98.

* 18x8 inch Equus Kalibur Wheels with Maxxis MAV-1 235/40R18
* Sureflo 3.5 inch medium-loud cat back exhaust
I use ULP most of the time, only use PULP when i want more economy on long trips.
i used pulp 95, i found it runs much smoother than ULP with slightly better economy and i figure unless the car is tuned for 98 its not worth me buying it
i used 2 use pulp (we only had a chioce of that or ulp back where i used 2 live) found that there was no pinging and stuff with it, ulp there was, fuel eceonomy was better with pulp, made it about match up pricewise so i thought i mightas well use pulp, since moving 2 adelaide ive found bp ultimate, i get better ecomony, better performance and a much smoother running engine...until now >>> http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/...d.php?p=382874
im not sure if this was caused by using ultimate, never thought of that, it couldve blocked the fuel filter or something i dont know, but when she was running properly bp ultimate was the go
i use ulp only because i have used my car on 95 pulp and fuel economy was terrible and i drove the car the same but i haven't tried 98 though.
We got rep back, yaaay!
i dont find any difference in economy with normal premium, but i get a lot better if i use vortex or bp ultimate
and about my last post, it was nothing 2 do with fuel, so im gonna continue 2 run ultimate or vortex in it
i think i may have to try this 98 octane i get paid 2moro anyway so its on pettie 4 the cruise this weekend hopefully it will go well at 10c dearer per litre.
We got rep back, yaaay!
i wouldnt put anything bp in my car its crap
mobil 8000 all the way never pings
Gotta love the Mobil Synergy 8000Originally Posted by daron.

we dont have a mobil around...but i dont get any pings with bp or caltex unlike i do with unleaded
also filling up with 98, its best to do it if your tanks pretty empty, (that way u notice the results more)
enjoy that high sulphur imported from singapore cr*p that Mobil ships in...![]()
