  • What gas do you use?

    just curious what everyone runs,

    Premium
    34.21%
    26
    Other (race gas / alcohol / beer ???)

    Since gas is over 3 bucks in KY! I have been using the cheapest... everynow and then I'll splurge for my baby and get the premium but thats like once a month or two months.

      Why? What you're doing makes no sense. The only time you need higher octane gas is if you're cammed or running some sort of power adder..and you need to run it all the time. If you're stock internals w/ no power-adders, you're just throwing your money away buying higher than 87

      With that said, I run 93

        I'm a scientist (and a pretty good one). I know higher octane is unnecessary and useless.

        I still buy the midgrade, to feel warm and fuzzy. Use Mobil One and Mobil One filters for the same reason.

              Premium because of the nitrous. Cant run anything less with spray.

                          93, because the lt1 sucks on anything less. getting tired of using it, the thought of selling the car is in my head.

                          current car- 95 Trans am- bolt ons, parked and collecting dust. why? because **** it

                              yea this is just a side note to those people who run premium non-FI


                              you are wasting your money, and seriously messing up your fuel trims everytime you go back and fourth.
