Waste 25 bucks on what? Are you talking about your next tank of gas?

No, it won't hurt your engine. It's just that if you don't need the extra octane, then why use it?
BTW, you wouldn't be wasting $25 on a tank, you would only be wasting about $6. (the price difference between regular and high octane)

Wow, do they sell 93 at a station around you man? If you really want some heavy duty octane, go to the aiport. It's like $15 a gallon though.

I don't think the airports are into selling the public their fuel. [sm=forgetit.gif]

your car is made to run on 89 or 87 octane... if you use higher you are just wasting your money with no performance gains at all.

Knew a guy back in highschool with a 3000GT that got it all the time.
