QUOTE(ilovemod @ Jan 15 2016, 01:55 PM) myth not confirmed. u can't take the result from a stage 2 gti with custom map, and generalized that assumption to all vw. You're right, I should be more specific It works for tuned cars, actually I should say, it works for cars that are tuned specifically to make use of Ron100 fuels. If the timing is set to just ron97, then it won't be able to take advantage of the higher octane fuel. |

QUOTE(Yugendx @ Jan 15 2016, 02:13 PM) Your car can use any octane above what is recommended by the manufacturer. If you need RON 91, then you want to use RON 120 also can, but you don't gain any advantage except for psychological effect of using more "premium" fuel. If you want to use lower octane like RON 88 also can, but you risk engine knocking which sometimes can be totally eliminated by retarding ignition timing, adjusting the valve timing.. of course you need a standalone ECU, factory ECU re-map or a piggyback ECU system to do this. My engine states it needs RON 97 but we tuned it to run with RON 95 with marginal difference in power. |

All those people who feel a difference in engine feel is a combination of 2 things.
1. psychological 2. better additive package. Elaborating on no.2, Petron will definitely use a much much much better additivie package for ROn100, better cleaning, better friction modifier, better everything compared to the regular 95 and 97. This ensures a 'more power' feeling even if no effect is obtained from higher RON rating. It's very clever marketing |

Ron100 can be compress more, so it will benefit performance car and turbo charged cars. Regular cars won't get any obvious performance boost.

All in all, RON100 is only for premium cars.
