Hi guys

With the gasonline prices skyrocketing. I started putting regular gasoline with octane 87 (mobil, bp)

Does these special , super or just regular really make a difference , I personally do not feel any difference so far in my driving but the price sure does..

Thanks.. any thoughts

 

Super helps your motor out in the combustion phase of engine stroke. The higher the octane the lease chance of detonation. If you have a stock Civic or accord even alittle modded then normal gas should be just fine. Onty when you have FI then super is a "must".

 

I've been broke for a while and running the cheap stuff too until a couple days ago. This time I put in 93 and I can feel a little bit of difference, the car seems peppier, might be mental though.

 

nah, its not mental, the car does feel peppier.

i havent put the expensive stuff for a while...
gas prices for me were like 2.03, 2.10, 2.15

big difference between 87 to 91...

 

i use super and for whatever reason i can drive for over 2weeks everyday but if i use the cheap gas it doesnt last that long. super is 2.29 here just went down was almost $3

 

Here in Georgia, 91 is slightly less than $2 bucks a gallon. I must be cheap cuz most of the time I use 89 for around $1.89 a gallon. I do notice a difference when I do use 91...car is peppier.

 

I've always ran 87 in my 94 Accord. I recently moved to southern CA, and I had my car completely loaded down to where the bumpers were about an inch from the ground. For that reason I threw a tank of 91 in. On the straightaway (interstate 5) I didn't notice any difference, but the car did get up the grapvine much easier with the higher octane gas.

 

its suppose to give u better gas mileage. and when ur on I-5 of course ur not going to feel any different its more for cleaning your engine. check ur manuel for ur car...i pump prem. all day long. i pay 2.24 right now threw chevron.

 

here in nyc the ultra 94 from most gas station just went down to 2.29 from like almost 3 bucks. i wish my car ran on piss.. save the 35 bucks every 3 days to fil up my car to buy turbo kit
