The fuel flap on my T16S says 98 Ron fuel. I know because of the APC it will run "Fine" on 95 ron, but I foudn in winter when the air is more dense, I wasn't getting as much boost as in summer, and less MPG, so I switched to Super for the winter and found it ran much better, and got better mileage. ATM Optimax is the cheapest locally, so I use it. If it was the most expensive like BP Ultimate, it wouldn't even touch my tank. Probably go back to normal 95 ron premium on the summer and see how it goes. -- The poster formerly known as Skodapilot. http://www.bouncing-czechs.com
