After using Shell V-power for sometime, I got tired of paying the premium price. I decided to give Caltex Techron a go, after some recomendations from my friends. I was imediately converted. When I pull out of the gas station, I did not feel any power loss, and this was a huge difference with the other brands of Ron 97 (Shell Super, Petronas Primax 2, etc.). In another words, the Caltex Techron felt like Shell V-power, which was amazing. I decided to stop using Shell V-power, mainly because my pocket could not support the premium price, and the benefit of power and mileage is not little over regular Ron 97 fuel.
