Chevron Techron
Sorry if this has been discussed and I may have missed it. Has anyone used Chevron Techron in their C8 Stingray?
is it safe and did you notice any differences? Thanks for the help!

Safe. Unless there's an issue you won't notice any difference. Best to use Top Tier gasoline regardless.

Techron is one of the "approved" additives for Top Tier fuel. If using TopTier, techron is not needed. If not using top tier, the owner's manual recommends the use of ACDelco Fuel System Traatement - but only every 9000 miles or every oil change - so infrequently. Because its suggest in lieu of TopTier, I believe that its either the same as, or similar to the Techron fuel additive. Meaning its safe when used in the quantities recommended. I do not use it and see no reason, generally to use it if using TopTier fuel.
"If your country does not have TOP TIER Detergent
Gasoline, add ACDelco Fuel System Treatment
Plus – Gasoline to the vehicle’s gasoline
fuel tank at every oil change or 15 000 km
(9,000 mi), whichever occurs first."
