i got 280 with my last tank.. i probably could have gone a little bit more, but didn't want to push it..
That's how much I normally get after I take a shit. If I don't then I average around 240 or so.

Btw I prefer 76 over Chevron.

I'll vote for V-Power based on marketing and placebo effect alone. The Shell pumps I've seen have replaced the "supreme" or "premium" tags with just "V-Power". Also, my last name just happens to start with V. Oh, and one can't forget about VTEC. (^_^)

Although I still use Chevron gas almost exclusively, when I think Techron, I think just cleaners. And in regards to independent stations: I am convinced, albeit without quantitative proof, that their gas is polluted with grit and other nasties.
