Rickster 5th Gear December 9, 2009 Share December 9, 2009 Better grip? Nope, juz a comfort-based tire. Initially used the Toyo proxes (very loud and sidewall very stiff cos its slanting inwards instead of vertical). Now using falken zirex, significantly quieter & softer, but din expect my FC to shoot up so much! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amsyl Neutral Newbie December 9, 2009 Share December 9, 2009 Most family sedan production cars, minimum octane is 91... but even manufactures recommend 95... 98 is more for high performance cars and will have no better effect then 95 if your car doesnt require it. i saw a few test on normal cars, stating 95 gave more milage than 98... using too low octane will cause knocking which is harmful to your car. but modern engines can sense it and adjust the ignition timing accordingly... but then no more fuel savings unless 92 is really much cheaper... http://sgauto.wordpress.com/2009/10/21/189/ 98 or 95 Octane Petrol for My Car?

Ryanyusoff 2nd Gear December 10, 2009 Share December 10, 2009 Better grip? better grip tires doesnt necessarily means better FC.coz more grip=more rolling resistance=more FC. but overall,i find Ron95 is good enough for my ride.Especially the Fuelsave 95.i find that i can cover more distance with it.dunno about other rides though.

Thegreatdeals Neutral Newbie January 24, 2010 Share January 24, 2010 I think using fuel saving enzymatic agent can save fuel. I had recently used it and to my surprise my milage increase with the same amount of fuel used. very useful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopitehc Neutral Newbie February 14, 2010 Share February 14, 2010 last time for my 1st car, i pumped 98 then when petrol went sky rocket sometime last year, i started 95 then realised that not really much difference unless u are the kind want faster pick up, then 98 is great. I personally prefer Caltex, sometimes Shell if i can't find Caltex. I personally feel that Caltex pick up better than Shell. Any comments on different petrol brands? Based on same type of Petrol eg: 95 or 98 etc etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimm12 Neutral Newbie February 15, 2010 Share February 15, 2010 rather than talk about what petrol save FC , better to talk about what car make/model save petrol right? because a heavier car with a larger engine is almost more fuel consuming than a lighter car with smaller engine ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
