United 98, 40Kl per tank more.
My car has always been pretty good on fuel for what it is & for the first 3yrs I religiously used BP Ultimate 98, anyhow when they put the price up to 13 cpl instead of 10 cpl over unleaded & were always the first to put their price up I got pissed off with them & decided to give United a try, the car seemed no different so I ran it on a mix of both fuels.
I did a trip down south a few weeks ago running only United & filled it after driving 632kl having only used 56.4L, I've been using United exclusively since, always cheaper & I get 4 cents per L discount cos I buy my smokes from IGA When running on BP the fuel light would always come on between 460 - 470kl with 9L left in the tank (checked & very accurate light) anyhow I've filled it 3 times since the trip south on United & have made no changes to the car or my driving style & now the fuel light comes on at around 500 - 510kl, I put 56.5L in it yesterday for 578kl around town with virtually no freeway driving & I don't exactly drive like a nanna so I'm pretty happy with the fuel & the car seems to run better too. Car is a Liberty with V3 STI running gear (1320kg) & the only mods are cold air intake & 3" Butler zorst, it's pulled a 13.2sec 105mph with a shitty 2.05 60ft & had boost leaks at the time, since then I've added a GD top mount & silicone under manifold intake so hopefully get a high 12 with the stock computer. So has anyone else tried running on this stuff and had similar results? apparently it's imported from Singapore. P.S. I always run it low & it's had no adverse effect in the 50k since the conversion
