for gas, no you do not need to run 94 octane everyday. if you can find it for cheap, go for it! :thumbup: around here the highest we got is 92.

as for the exhaust and headers question... <~ use this button!!

93 or better, dont go lower.
Yes the car will run, but it will perform more poorly and adjust itself to the lower octane fuel.

Says right on the damn gauge, "premium only"


*sigh*

ok, have you guys read your manuals??!!!! they put those things in there for a reason. it says 91 octane or better. if all you have up there is 87, 89, and 94, run 94.

and londonGSR, im not flaming you, you dont even have a manual to read yet! but make sure you do read it when you get the car. and enjoy your car!!!
