I can give a full unbiased review of this fuel. So I have an Astra 1.4 turbo and my PCV valve had been failing for a while leaving lots of carbon buildup and an underboost condition as a result. I had changed the turbo, and everything else in attempt to fix the issue. Eventually I gave up and accepted just driving the car underpowered not knowing what the issue was. I filled up with VPower on a whim and over the next few weeks the power to my engine was restored and now no more underboost, so it definitely cleans the engine. Massively impressed 👍

@@markthoughtswithukrainemas2072 premium fuel is known for improving power (higher octane rating) and fuel economy but 3mpg does not begin to cover the additional cost. I'm not against it cause I actually used to put it in my car but that was before the cost of fuel went thru the roof.

I was genuinely interested in learning more about the fuel.

I can tell a difference between none name brand gas though right after filling the tank and am sure in the long run a top tier gas would definitely be cleaner burning for a engine.

From what I remember, the more important point was that they claimed a restoration of engine performance, which typically means power output. The dyno test would show evidence of this claimed restoration of performance.
