Premium only... and when I can afford it (i.e. less than 2.20 a gallon) I get Chevron gas.

Though, I have a GS-R, so getting the cheap stuff would hell on my engine.

Not really. The timing would be retarted slightly...and you wouldn't feel the decrease in power. There would be no long term disadvantages to using <91 octane in the GS-R. The higher octane rating is only required since the C1 has a relatively high compression ratio.

That said, I always use 94 octane in mine

Here in the 'Omaha' we have stations like:

Ammaco
Texaco
and Shell is just getting into town again. They use to have like 3 stations acouple years ago and they are buying out half of the Ammaco stations.

But my teg buds get Prem. Good stuff for a good car!

They don't have 94 octane in the States (in Cali the highest is 91 which is what I used while I was there), but they do have 93 in some parts.

We have 94 octane in Canada which is what I always use here.
