Does anyone know what is the highest octane fuel we can get over here & where can you get it from in the sheffield (S Yorks) area?

if u meen pump gas then it optimax
In terms of 'standard' fuel readily available your best bet is shell optimax - 98 ron. Next is BP ultimate at 97 ron and various other super unleaded's if you're brave enough to try them.
Tesco do a 99 ron fuel, but its not had good reports and has caused misfires in some cars.
Personally I always use optimax, and haven't had a problem with it.
Then there's loads of racing fuel type options and additives, which are both expensive and uneccessary unless you're running some SERIOUS power, even 600bhp cars have run on optimax.

Nope, it's BP 102 octane;-)Ninja_tune_factory said:
It's available from the pumps at a very select few garages at the reasonable price of £2.42 per litre.

fuel
Wouldn,t mind sticking in a tank of BP 102 but according to the website it's all daaarn saaarf! So a trip to london & back at about 25mpg - (downhill with the wind behind me) would cost approx £160
Hmm Tempting!
Not
Think ill just rough it with optimax till BP realise that their is a lucrative (or daft) customer base in yorkshire.

Tesco 99 is pretty good. Det wise its definately as good as Optimax but doesnt seem to get quite the same MPG.
All the guys using Tesco 99 RON, stick a tank of Optimax in. I guaruntee you'll notice the difference in response that Optimax gives, as well as the better MPG.
I ran Tesco 99 for 3 or 4 months as it was cheaper than the Optimax. I just thought I'd stick some Optimax in to see if there was any difference and haven't let Tesco 99 near my car since !! ;o)

I'll probably get slated for saying this but as we dont have Optimax in NI i found Sainsbury's Super to be better than BP's super and only 2p more than Premium so cant beat it on price though for a track day id use standard with NF additive.
