There isn't a difference. It's simple engineering.
What was the Myvi designed to run on? RON95. That means it doesn't matter what octane you pump, as long as it meets the RON95 requirement, it will perform as designed.
Pumping V-Power won't give you ANY performance benefits whatsoever, since the engine was not designed to handle it. The "benefits" you named are nothing more than psychological.
Increasing octane just means that the fuel requires a higher compression to detonate. The engine has a fixed compression designed to handle RON95, so increasing the octane does nothing.
So save yourself some money at the pump next time, bro.
Well, no offence dothackRAVE. Actually there is difference between RON 95 and V-POWER. Again, this is not physiological stuff but is experience.What was the Myvi designed to run on? RON95. That means it doesn't matter what octane you pump, as long as it meets the RON95 requirement, it will perform as designed.

I just back for home leave after a year work @ USA. My Myvi was 'pass-down' to my sister and she use to pump my car with RON95 because it is much cheaper compare to V-Power\RON 97.
One day, I accidentally pump V-Power - I taught green is RON 95 (not in Malaysia for quite a period) and then my sis drove it.
Then the conversation as below:
SIS: What you did to your car? You go to service? Why the car so smooth and more power d?
ME: No ah I go to shell pump the green color one.
SIS: Wah!!...You so rich. Green color is the most expensive and it is RON 97.
ME: Ya meh?! See the CC receipt...... GOSH!!!!
Conclusion, there is different between RON 95 and RON97\V-Power.
