I've also read somewhere in the reviews that the difference in high octane (95ron) and regular (91ron) on an EFI engine is barely noticeable due the EFI car's ECU doing the adjustment on the fuel and air mixture, so whether you used 95ron or 91ron, the ECU can adjust its mixture and maximize the performance regardless the octane rating of fuels you use.
Is this the reason why nowadays, the difference of special and regular fuel are just centavo whereas back in the day when there are a lot of carb engines running, it P5 and up in difference ..
My current car is a Corolla GLi with an EFI 4afe engine, will I really noticed improvements on using 95ron than 91ron ?? Currently using Shell FuelSave ..
Taxi drives also said that they only use regular unleaded on their Vios cause special unleaded tend to clog the injectors ...
