Re: What kind of gas do you use? I always use 93 octane since day one, still do....most gas stations have ethanol in their gas...10% of it, thats supposly bad for nitrous solenoids, but I don't worry about that anymore...
I like to fill up on some 100 every now and then...

Re: What kind of gas do you use? <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> $1.24 93 octane...I wouldnt know what to do with myself. I use Chevron, 91 Octane here in California at a nice $1.77 a gallon winter, and mid $1.90's summer time. Is there any reason to live in California besides the weather and the beach? I think not!

Re: What kind of gas do you use? I try to use either sunoco 94 or marathon 93. Both available here in ohio for about a $1.50 a gallon. My seat of the pants did actually feel a bit of a difference with the 94. Just don't ever use BP/Aamaco.
