Alright, one more question for y'all.
Do I really need premium, like it says on PFYC? Obviously, it'd be better, but it's a lot more expensive.

you have to run above 91 octane so you can run 92 or 93 whatever you feel like i switch some times depending on location....(92 is at the local getty and 93 is on the highway)....premium is alot but not that much more added up like Austin said

What might happen? I don't really know what the differences are between the different types of gas.
