The Real Shell ULP and E10 Octane Ratings

[Alister]

Thought this may be of some interest...
On Monday I was having an argument at work (Coles Express/Shell) with the manager about the octane ratings of ULP.
The manager was claiming that Shell ULP is sold at a minimum octaning rating of 92RON and E10 is 91RON.
I disagreed claiming Shell ULP is minimum 91RON and E10 is also 91RON but I wouldn't be surprised if it was higher.
He didn't believe me so he called up Shell directly and found when you purchase Shell ULP from Coles Express:
-Shell ULP octane rating varies from 91RON (minimum) to 92RON
-Shell ULP E10 octane rating varies from 91.5 (minimum) to 92.5RON.

Interesting stuff :)

You blokes need to start doing some work instead of wasting time on stuff like :p :stick:

Noone who uses standard ULP really cares about octane ratings

Are you putting this rubbish fuel in your LS1? I'll go out on a limb here and suggest that 99% of forum members use a form of premium fuel in their LS1 and if they don't they should.

Heh, hell no :)
Running V Power 98RON (tuned for 95RON by PT).

V Power Racing 100RON varies from 100RON minimum to 102RON.

I won't bother ... I'll just break out the red pen and start circling "no" right here from home

Mate the V-Power Racing 100 octane is the ultimate
