Japan's 100 octane translates to about 110-115 octane here on in europe, and 105-110 octane in the US.

sir, conflicting yung explanation mo sa sinabi ni RS Sprint.
tanung kung alin ang totooo?

Shell's "reduced octane" gasolines are not actually octane reduced, but the advertised octane is lower to prevent legal trouble. I got this confirmed from both Shell UK and Shell PH. Velocity (Optimax) is still guaranteed 97 minimum, but they advertise it as 95 in case some unscrupulous gas station mixes it with SUL and lowers the rating. Basically it saves trouble for the parent company.

sir, is this mean only for shell velocity or sa lahat ng gaso?

As long as you don't hear any knock, you're fine. Not all cars need or will benefit from the extra octane of those "designer" fuels. It's mostly marketing anyway.

[RS Sprint]

Splerdu is most probably right whereas I'm mistaken. He knows more about these things.

[wrecker]

my EK is comfortable sa mga 95 octane na fuel. may engine knock pag lower ang ginamit ko.

I used Petron Extra Unleaded for about 2 years particularly for city driving but when I drive long and fast (mga byaheng pampainit ng pwet hehehe) Petron XCS gamit ko. Mas malakas hatak at walang hirap sa makina.
Nasubukan ko din yung dating Velocity at ung V-Power ngayon, matulin at bumibirit makina, pangarera.
Ung sa Caltex medyo nakakapag-alangan ang pakiramdam ng hatak, parang nabibitin.
Octane ratings in gas stations are not really reliable, and Philippine fuels are always substandard compared to other countries, ala lang, madaming sentiments about the quality of our fuels, something that politics and business get mixed into the equation pero off-topic na yun...

A decade ago, Caltex Techron Premium was my preferred fuel on my sedan. Never a fan of Extra Unleaded.

5 years ago I changed to Petron XCS.

Not so long ago I began to patronize NGas of Flying V.

For some reason, I never had a prolonged liking for Shell.

Sir, BAWAL po ang text/SMS speak/format dito sa tsikot.com.

Re your querry i think wala namang masisira based on my expirience.

Since we acquired a gasoline powered car, Lagi shell V-power na pinapakarga namin. Iba kasi ang hatak and ang FC and yung driving style namin is kakaiba rin.
