Re: Premium or regular?
I run the middle grade stuff. Every 4th tank, I dump in a bottle 108 octain booster and a bottle of fuel injector cleaners. But I'm on the crazy end of the spectrum. the friggin gas changes blends as often as a whore changes corners, so I try to compensate....... But then again, I am pushing 300~340miles per tank.

Re: Premium or regular?
You want to run the lowest grade possiable without detonation. Not to mention, most daily driven cars are designed to run on low grade octane.

Re: Premium or regular?
it's a little under $3,000. And so anyway...is it okay to put 87 in my car now? Even though it has 93 in it now?

Re: Premium or regular?
you shouldnt have a problem running 87, there is a possibility though, hiflow explained it in a different post, if i find the thread ill post it here. one thing you could do though is get your car tuned to run on 93... basically advancing the timing i think.
