    I own a 02 gp gt I was just seeing what you guys think about this. My gas mileage seems to be alot better when I fill with 93 Dose this happen with you guys? And is it safe to put 93 in. I belive it calls for 87

    you can put 93 in no problem. it burns better and it prevents knock.

    If you get knock on 87, then yes it is.. and it's not totally uncommon.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Recommended maintenance would be good. Fuel and air filters, spark plugs, clean MAF, clean TB... if you haven't.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.
