The more you drive the more you will need.

Other than minor differences in mileage compared to other gas (probably more related to subtle differences in driving style/temperature/road conditions), likely nothing.

I like it.
The car warms up way faster. There is more power and the engine runs smoother. The acceleration is definitely different as it is even through rpms. I am used to esso where at low rpms I was getting more power but at 6000 it was stalling.
With shell it is slower at low rpms but it becomes constant later and the power is even to 6400.
