No man, Ive read that they help with detecting pinging and adjusting the timing. My car requires minimum of RON95, im currently using RON97, no harm to try VPOWER Racing or RON100

Harm your wallet. Lol
What is your car actually?

Proton Persona Elegance, Proton Iriz and 330i

Used the Vpower Racing on the Bimmer. Felt no difference . Will try the RON100 after this

If you don't modify your 330i to boost higher, no point using 100 I think, and don't expect better mileage if any would offset the big price difference. As for your other 2, total waste of money filling up 97 for them, just 95 is good enough.

You think so? I can't say i know any better. The petrol cover did say "RON95 (min RON92)"

The compression ratio is also only 11:1 compared to other cars like Mazda with 13:1

But some people (who don't drive this car) keep telling me to fill up RON97 to avoid knocking. Not so sure now, no one can give definite answer (other than that BMW petrol cover la)

Sorry, is this the 330i F30 or the old 330i E90?

If compression ratio is 11:1 with turbocharged,  then I think 97 is safer. Having said that since BMW put 95 on the fuel cover, then surely they have adjusted the tuning to suite 95, hence it should run perfectly fine with 95 and the improvement of 97 might not be significant.

Mazda 13:1 compression is because it's GDi NA engine. Like my Mark X, 12:1, yet I just fill up 95 for it!

Shell's V Power Racing (Red) is basically their regular VPower Ron 97 (Green) with added addictives. With the added additives, it will still be Ron 97 though Shell claims additional benefits like better performance.
I don't fill up with V Power Racing, rather going for Petron's Ron 100 which cost less than V Power Racing. Ron 100's higher octane is a different level of fuel than any Ron 97 no matter how good one can claim it to be.

Petrol dealers fear dry pumps when MCO ends

“We were essentially giving customers a subsidy of more than 30 sen a litre.”

With the above news,I suspect Shell Vracing I pumped last week was Ron95. Diff in price $1.01. There is no difference in power on my engine which is tuned for Ron98!

To be honest, in most normal street cars  you won't notice any difference between 95 and 97 despite some cars are claimed to be tuned 97. Most people say more power la, smoother la, more fuel efficient la, are mostly just phsycological placebo effect! Lol
