Why are you concerned about gas? You don't think flooring it past 100 uses that much?

Save yourself some money. Buy regular unleaded and dont floor it / go 100+.
I buy unleaded regular cuz its cheaper, I dont have a SC so I dont really need it, and I dont need to use higher octane gas to help shave a minute or two off my commute to work.

X2! You'll also save money on speeding tickets and higher insurance, among other things; unless of course, you like seeing flashing lights in your rear view mirror...

Yeah, but you gotta open her up sometimes.
Especially when ricers roll up.

SHEESH!! (sorry had to rant, it just gets really old)

For S/C'd and high compression motors it is a requirement, but in most other instances, why waste the money?
