Default GAS

I was wondering if you are running regular gas then switch up, would that hurt your engine??? Or if you just keep on switching gases...

Im not saying it like that I meant if i used regular for awhile then premium for a bit and went back after awhile, if that would have any harm done

I cant see where it would be "bad" for your car, but why would you want to spend the money for premium if you didnt need it?

I use 87 since im not running boost yet. Gas prices are killer. Only time I use higher is when I have no choice and im at sh*ty looking gas station then ill drop mid to high octane feel safer.
