SeaOil Extreme 97

**loidch** · July 12th, 2009 09:55 PM

i have read about it on yesterday's paper. they said it is backwards compatible, even old carburatted engines can run safely on it as long as the fuel lines uses original oem parts. so it means the ethanol content really swells the rubber hoses. but at least they are honest to say so.

what exactly does a 97 octane rating do for a relatively new and modern engine w/c can run on 93 octane? maybe they are eying on very old engines w/c thru the years has built up octane appetite and also modified engines higher than 10.5 compression ratios.

mandated by DOE kasi that all gas stations must be able to sell E10 at least 10% of total gasoline sales... kaya strategy ng most oil companies is to replace a certain product with one containing 10% ethanol.

[SIZE=5]eventually, all gasoline products in the phil will contain ethanol.... kaya mabuti pa masanay na tayo lahat magkarga ng E10.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=4]if your car requires 91~93RON, E10 93RON will do....[/SIZE]

regards to all

+1 on this. brand-conscious kasi ang mga Pinoy, that is, yung brand na nakasanayan na. pero dapat malaman din ang pedigree kumbaga, so that we'll not simply shun one brand simply because we are not "sanay" with it.

I think kung ethanol din naman ang pag-uusapan it is Seaoil who pioneered with e10 gas wayback in 2005 pa and now they're offering the highest octane rate which is +97. Ang vpower kase although one of the top 3 +95 lang talaga ang octane rate plus given the fact na mas mahal kesa extreme97. i've read it in many news articles nga na compatible naman ang '97 models up sa extreme97.

Bro FYI 97 na ang RON ng V-power since last month.

Wow I didn't know about V-Power being 97 RON already. Is this really true?

Well before they launched the Extreme 97 recently, SeaOil used to sell G5 Extreme (or something along that name) that's previously 97+ RON already (E10). So I assume they're just re-releasing it or they probably did something else to perk it up.

I tried it out way before and it's probably as good as Petron Blaze. It feels slightly less under-powered though because of the E10 feel, you know, may certain pakiramdam ang E10 sa apak vs. pure gasoline.

Anyway it's good that they have it on the market again, and I'll most likely try it out sometime, though I have a Petron BPI card so I use that most of the time.

I usually fill up with high octane gas during out of town trips for that extra power ;)

last time i was at a shell gas station along mindanao ave, v-power was stll at 95 RON. looks like they upped the RON without much advertising?

like sir kotiko, i also use high octane gas, mostly for all my trips, in and out of the city that is. and also, i do feel the difference also between an ethanol-blended gasoline and a pure one. seems like "mas pino ang dating" ng pure gasoline.

Eversince we acquired a gasoline fed vehicle, V-power na talaga kami.
and yes mas maganda parin IMO ang pure gasoline and smells much better

nakakahilo ang amoy ng v-power with e10

also i noticed that my FC suffered a bit

agree ako dito! there is no harm in trying other brands,, mas mahal nga un top3 gasoline station na nakasanayan na ng pinoys pero to think of it ganun den nman ang maku2ha mo.. we just have to be wais
