E85 is best though,105 octane at 102p/litre,car does need mods for it.

Where can I get the E85 from btw? which garage does that? I havn\'t seen it sold anywhere :(

SleepyDude

Yea i was wondering that :-)

I know you can get 102 stuff from BP, but havn\'t found an E85 garage yet :(

Quote from: m1tch;640746Just don\'t go on boost much and you should be ok, the RX is a high performance sports car and does need high performance fuel

When i do go out i just casual drive, i need to get used to the car before i start putting my foot down as i\'ve only had it for 2/3 weeks.

I usually fill up with V-Power, 99 in the UK, 100 over here.

It\'s more expensive here though! Works out about £1.26 a litre!!

That isnt too far off the price here

Damn really? It\'s been a couple of months since I\'ve been back, was only about the £1 mark when I last filled up.

Bugger. :(

I use Tesco 99 as my local Shell were kind enough to scam my card, although this thread now has me worried.

Morrisons sell it, but not every one does. Go on to their website and it tells you what stations have it.

V Power for me for low boost and V Power mixed with race fuel for high

im sure i read a thread where they said E85 is quite corrosive so need different tanks for it or fuel lines?
how do you know if E85 is safe for stock fc/fd/fe tanks and lines etc?

It will eat away through stock tanks and lines eventually.

Tim tuns E85 with great results
