heyguy's for the last week i beenusing vortex (aka 98octane)....and i reckon im getting heaps better Km/h's out of it....i a getting really good result's like heaps noticable


if you have a hit fuel filter can you get better consumption or a will a new oneprovide better consumption?....only reason i ask is cause i replaced the filter and filled up wit 98 octane at the same time. and yeah i dunno but i've gotten nearlly 420k's so far and got qaurter tank left............i do put my foot down occasionally...but yeah not that much... anyone else get good result from premium 98??

stop whinging mate! i got $300 outta a tank of petrol on a vr v6 and that was after i put a greenfoam memcal in it.. if your sooooo worried about using that much fuel in one tank then put it on gas..

i did and i havent looked back, 45c/L with a docket ANY day of the week, i only get 300-350ish from a tank (normally about the 18-21L/100kms yes its **** economy) but it costs so much less
