Well per the manual it states not to drive on low fuel because it messes up the cats. I think that is what they mean. |

From what I understand, there is no difference power-wise or octane-wise between no-name gas and top-tier gas. Gas is gas and they all have to meet the same quality standards.
HOWEVER Top-tier gasoline will have much more (and better) detergents in it to help keep your fuel system clean and running better. That is why they cost more than the no-name brands. WITH THAT SAID Fifth Gear just did a test on last night's show (Wednesday nights on Velocity) that showed that Shell V-Power made around 4-5 more HP than other top-tier and no-name gasoline. Keep in mind this was Shell gas from Europe which is not the same stuff we get here. (I'm sure it's close, but it's not the same)

Shell V-Power 99% of the time...every time I use any other fuel my mileage goes down on my regular trips...Less mileage, less efficiency..sluggish performance...Here in north Tampa area Shell V-power is only a few cents more if not par with other fuels.
