I've been running the Fes on Tesco's 99RON stuff with no probs. Made 207bhp at Engine Advantages so it can't be too shonky

I've heard people say that Optimax is not "proper" 98 RON petrol, but rather bog standard 95 RON petrol with additives. So... theoretically Tesco 99 RON may be better?
But I'm no expert
