    That's probably what gets you the most performance, but my 98 says Premium only, I'm poor, and it's still running. I doubt premium fuel has ever even been in my gas tank before...

    I'm sorry...but that's dumb. Do you know that running premium vs. 87 is going to cost you what? $3-$4 IF that at the pump...just think of what it is going to cost you in the long run...

    Nick you took the words right out of my mouth. I hate people that buy performance cars and put ****ty gas in them. The manual says you can run it, it doesn't say to run it all the time. And the gas cap clearly says Premium Only.

    If your that poor sell your car and get a moped until you can get your finances in check.
