91-3 is about the max these cars need depending on conditions.

My presumption was that t-boy was following instructions and already using premium, and that a bottle of 104+ wasn't going to help his or anyone else's quest for better times. I am aware that in some parts of the country it's hard to get your hands on honest 93 octane at the pump.

Yeah, welcome to California where 91 is all we can get unless you want to hunt down one of the few stations in the state that sells 100 unleaded. Just be sure to bring your Brinks truck to pay for it!

You guys are awesome. Thanks for giving me so much info! With the K&Ns, are you using replacement filters or K&N filter and intake (high performance intake kits)?

Nice hp number, but TQ seems low.
