    You need to get the ignition timing retarded by a tuner of some sort i believe if you are wanting to run the car on 95 ron or standard unleaded, i just use optimax (98ron) car goes so much better on it.

    Try it and see, i use standard unleaded in my 16v and it runs fine, cant tell the difference between that, super unleaded and LRP. Some people have reported poor performance but it will do no harm to try half a tank.

    Like i say try the cheapo stuff (standard ul) first and see if you get any problems with it. Youve got a 50:50 chance. Then put the v-power in for special occasions !
