They just put a self service bp with 98 in Porirua to replace the pak n save one opposite pak n save. Doesn\'t even make sense if they are purging the 98 petrol after spending money on some infrastructure for it.

So if 98 is going, what will everyone be running on?

-95 Gas

-Mobil Synergy 8000 (heard that ethanol not so good for subarus)

-95 Gas plus octane booster (if it works)

So everyone with a standalone or tuned ecu will have to get a retune to suit the new gas or sell their cars?

Maybe today I will ask Porirua bp if they are getting rid of theirs soon and update this thread. Almost like a mad max buzz for petrol (the 98 kind)

I even got 98 from bp in Wanganui about 4 weeks ago from a relatively small looking Bp.

Someone on FB saying that BP have not had a delivery of 98 since January... and that maybe some stations are actually selling 95 as 98.

Kinda worrying.

Good way to get buttraped by the commerce commission if true

Yeah it seems pretty unlikely I guess...

What about all the BP sites that still have the "Ultimate" sign still up?

Upper Hutt got rid of it well over two years ago, and yet the sign hasn\'t changed; neither had Lower Hutt (Melling) when I was there last week.

A lot of modern cars can run E-10 (Gull Force 10, Mobil 8000), there claim to be issues with older cars (pre 2000\'s). I\'ve tried it before and haven\'t had any issues, it\'s only 97.5 octane but can one tell the 0.5 difference? I guess as long as your car is tuned on it, it should be fine. Most of us here will be running some sort of aftermarket or chipped ECU that can allow for variations in fuel. Or a reflashable ECU in modern (mid-late 2000 onwards) cars.

That\'s why i said "modern" as opposed to dirty old diesel from 4-5 years ago.

;D

BP say...

 

BP Ultimate Diesel offers;

Outstanding cleaning performance

Protection against corrosion and wear

Anti-foam for cleaner and faster refuelling

But that would apply to all NZ diesel ?

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
