So with the KR going crazy, are you just losing performance or potentionally harming your motor? To be honest I cant afford the premium here, its about 1.60 a litre which is $112 to fill up. Cant do that as a student, I go through $100 a week just as it is using regular.
If 87 only hurts performance, then ill stick with it, still goes like a bat out of hell on it

that's pretty much what I'm saying. The V6 doesn't need premium. And the performance gain isn't going to be much if any at all. |

problem is too many people come in here and say there is NO BENEFIT in running premium, which is incorrect... now whether it is worth it is a completely separate issue that is up to each individual owner to decide...

Heres the bottom line:
Like your car - use 87 Love your car - use the highest you can find. As I said earlier, nothing but Shell 93 for me! Sent from my 2LT/RS using Tapatalk |

I have a SS with a supercharger. I have used 93 since I got it. I try like hell to use Shell but if I can't find that I get BP. My buddy works for a gas testing company and he says that these are the best. For what it is worth.

Regular. No need to waste money on premium

I go and get gas where ever is the busiest. I rather have Exxon gas that constantly get refilled than going with shell that sits in the tank.
going with 93 is definitely not a waste but not a necessity. |
