I used to run on 89 and found that the engine achieved higher performance on 92/93. When I was on 89, however, I used to get better mpg. I have learned though, through this bb, that that is a direct correlation of using higher octane.
Higher octane: more performance, less mpg
Lower octane: less performance, higher mpg
Now that I have a JT 3", would it be worth it to try out the 89 again? Would that have any effect on the octane rating/knock sensor?
BTW: 91/92/93 are all basically the same price in my area. They are all considered premium grade. Only 94 is priced higher, and can only be found at Sunoco.
