Whats the promo deal on VPower?

On the subject of VPower it fells the same as Ultimate to me from the seat of your pants fyno. When I run VPower with my 98 tune or Ultimate with the same tune on the same dyno I make the same power. Km's per tank I seem to get about the same with both fuels also.

I use the servo I'm closest to when trip meter is beeping with 60-80kms left till empty....Sheel, BP, Caltex or Mobil...who gives a which brand of 98....Don't notice any difference (power or economy) and I won't have it that one brand of 98RON is better for your engine than the other even if the fuel recipient is a temperamental 290 kw BOSS engine.

Im like you I havent noticed any differance with the 98 ron from any of the above. I have read more literatue saying Ultimate is the best but then again that literature was from BP. I know in Wheels that the say that FPV recommends Ultimate to its customers. You dont no if there is any behind the scence wheeling and dealing going on. Didnt John Laws recommend and endorse who ever throw him the most $$$$.
