What kind of gas



i know i am probably going to be shot for this, but i have always put 87 in. 
but look at it from my angle, im young, im in college, and i live in SoCal. 
right now there is a deal at a gas station in my town for 87oct @ $1.61/gal. 
the station is packed with people too.

my car has never pinged and i have driven it pretty hard and always happy 
with its performance. i dont see any reason to use and thing else.

the rare few times that i do but in higher quality gas, i have not noticed a 
change in performance or milage or anything that would make me want to fill 
up at 91 ever again. the only thing that changed was the weight of my 
wallet.

when i get my turbo motor, however, i will start using Supreme (then i will 
really be poor)

just my $.02
