It seems that my car runs better on 93 octane than 87....I've also noticed when something little in the car changes its noticable to me and not to other people.1999 Firebird Black<br />A4 3.08 gears<br />Mods: Carbon Fiber Whisper Lid, Raised Air Box, K&N Air Filter, Direct Hits Ignition, Flowmaster American Thunder 3\", 160 Degree Hypertech Thermostat, SLP Fan Switch, 3\" High Flow Cat<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=273903\" target=\"_blank\">My car on Cardomain</a>

I just use whatever gas the manufacturer recommends.
For my 3.4L, they suggest 87 octane, so that's what I use. I used to use 91 octane but I fealt no real difference.
Some people waste money at the pump by using gas with higher a octane rating than what they really need.E-mail: ibjanky@yahoo.com<br />AOL IM: IBJanky
