Replying to: rparis (Apr 15, 2009 5:30 am) Especially to the "boy-racer", 0-60MPH mentality "set". As a general rule the advertised HP rating is only with the recommended premium fuel. "...waste of money.." Depends on the price spread and mpg attainable between the two octane levels. |

Replying to: mickey34 (Apr 15, 2009 2:03 pm) Did you ask your mechanic his thoughts on 87 octane-does he think mpg would not be as good which is what I was told by a mile or so per gallon? |
