With that car the ECU will make some decent use of high octane 93...It will advance the timing a bit, you'll get slightly better acceleration and possibly up to 5 or 6 extra MPG.
In Europe 91 passes for "regular" gas grade.

Thanks, me too.


Wow...that pic made me think of when my daughter was little and would hold on to one or two of my fingers when we walked together. Wish I could spend just one more day with her as a toddler (she's 20 now).
Adorable shot...I know that taking care of a small child is not all fun and games, but I promise you that you will look back upon this time with great fondness and longing.

You are also looking quite fit for nearly 50, wemay!

Thank you Virtus_Probi. I'd slow time if I could.
