But once u keep your revs lower than 3000rpm, yuh pocket would be happier and heavier.

The tiida uses premium. The corolla is supposed to use premium too. I THINK the elantra and cerato uses super. I could be wrong on those last two though. Good job on the list.

I know the new Mazda engines use gasoline direct injection and have an high compression ratio, creating the Premium fuel recommendation.
I'm very surprised about the Tiida and Corolla. I wonder if that applies to the whole Nissan and Toyota line up.
PS. An ad for you car is on TV as I write this. Talking Mazda SkyActive Technology lol

Yes. I can also envisage converting my car to also run on CNG depending on what the Government does with the "Super" price.

Stephon....so the 2.0 skyactiv 3 is coming next year? If so then at what price? 260k?

The reason they say use 95 is because you will get the performance specs they claim on the brochure basically. If it can run on 91 minimum then super exceeds this and you should be fine.

It should be if they want to compete with Mistubishi and their 2.0 Lancer but knowing the people we dealing with here, don't be surprised at a 270 - 275 price bracket, also the new Mazda 6 is going to cost around 225 - 235

In most cases engines can use a range of gasoline, usually 91-95 RON. The engine will compensate if it detects knocking and retard ignition timing. Of course this will reduce engine output. My owners manual recommends 95RON for the B16A but says you can use 91 if 95 is not available. The problem is it does not say use 91 instead of 95. This leads me to believe that you can use 91 occasionally if 95 is not available in an area where you need to refuel .... applicable if you live in big countries and fuel products vary from location to location.
That being said any1 running Super in their B16A for extended durations? Any issues?

Well now you bring up a related question ... what exactly is the octane rating of Super? It says 91 on the pump

That's from the manual? Same for A4's then I guess? You should test that during the day. Last time a manual on a Euro said that it worked at night, but not so well during the day.ek4ever wrote:How about using Super with octane booster?

Yes some Octane boosters do help. Most will not make up for starting with 95 though. And I don't see how you can use 91 sometimes but not consistently? If it worked at certain times that would more likely be due to driving style/external conditions. If you can get it to work in extreme heat while driving hard, then it should be able to work all the time no?
