GMballistic Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 to add to the conspiracy theory a friend of mine races a motor bike (no idea what) and has it tested on a dyno on a regular basis - he has stated that he will only use shell as it gives him an extra 2 bhp over tesco Sorry not laughing at you but come on 2Bhp?! Tell him he could get more extra Bhp than that just by running it on fresh oil every time, ...or maybe he could just take a dump before he rides for a better power to weight ratio. The only reason I used to stick to Shell V-power super unleaded for my Zed was because it was specifically mapped on that fuel. Prior to it's remapping I used any super unleaded fuel available locally which 9 out of 10 times was Texaco Supreme unleaded. Now in the Civic I'm back to just using Texaco super unleaded again as it's the most convenient fuel station as I don't need to drive out of my way to fill up like I used to when using Shell. Filled up today actually and at £1.21 p/l now it's on par with most super unleaded brands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
