I always go back and forth on this...

Some weeks I put only 87 in for the eco value, other weeks I put 91/93 in just to clean out the injectors and run some good gas through the car. Not sure on the performance edge by running higher octane. I look at it this way, I'm sure there is a small gain somewhere in our LFX engine with higher octane, just not sure how much?
