corsa vxr to ibiza cupra

[sly200sx]

Sorry, should have stated his question was on unleaded or higher octane like tesco99 or v power etc.. I run mine on 95 most of the time, until 1/4 mile season lol

Does it not say on the inside of his filler flap?

Dont be fooled into thinking Momentum is as great as it claims though, i only ever use tesco if i'm too far away from a shell garage and even then only put enough in to get me to shell..

Aparently not. Just tyre pressures

Ive had mine on the dyno with both and i made the grand total of ................







no difference in figures. if anything i think momentum has a smoother startup than vpower

I use 100 ron

 

[splinter26]

Yeah but the quality of the fuel is different and momentum has proven to cause problems as it achieves the ron via additives unlike vpower.

the RON is always made of additives!

Facepalm!

I pretty much always use Momemtum 99 and have had no problems, when I can I fill up with V-power though.

Regarding the OP, I had a little play with a VXR last night and demolished it.

I've been using Vpower recently to see if there is any noticable differance from 95 ron and honestly I can't tell the differance.

Power seems the same and you don't get any more mpg. Back to cheep ASDA stuff for my Boc.....only the best!

 

[adamb87]

I just use shell fuel save and cant tell the difference between 95 and 98

Well i was told this by Revo and have talked about it with other members on here in the past, i may well have been misinformed.

 

[Nutkin]

Is there really a debate going on when the car manual itself says use higher octane fuel for the engine to run at its best?

You've contributed a few time to this debate.
Was about the op deciding between a cupra and vxr was it not ?

I've corrected some peoples misconceptions.

TBH the OP is crazy anyway as why would you let a forum decide what car to buy? Just go drive both and pick the one you like the best!
