Topic #22799 98 posts Started by pr_caralho
Like it says 87, 91 or more? whats better for performance or gas milage?

Go leafs go
93 because I have to.

You will hear people say they feel better performance or they see better gas mileage, its really negligable.

98 Ron.

If I could get Jap spec 101 I would.

94 ..the highest i can find in my area

15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
I run 92 because I have to. I've experimented with toluene mixed in with my gas but didn't notice a difference.

New Toyota project coming soon...
I swear I get better mpg if I use 91 rather than 87... I drive the same way (agressive) but with 87 after about 5 tanks fill ups everyone it average 20-21 give or take a few tenths consistently with 91 I averaged 23-24... huge difference? naw but if I feel better paying 20 cents more a gallon Ill take it.

YoungSurvival.Org-Celica traded for.. 350z.. traded for Mazda5.. soccer mom!

Higher octain will not doing anything unless your engine needs it or is tuned for it. I use basic 87 because thats all i need.

I have heard that using higher octain will help reduce valve knock with older/high milage cars. but still is point less.
98 Ron, sometimes with Octane booster in aswell
I use 93 just cause. I mean I don't mind pay the extra 15-20cents. and I seem to get better fuel economy out of the higher grade gas
87 is the way to go, anyone remeber in the DC area when gas was like 69 cents and i could fill my tank for under 10bucks >frown.gif>

hows it taste motha f*cka
I always use premium. Depending on altitude, it's either 91 or 92 for me. In Colorado it's 91 and Cali is 92. Our regular out here is 85.
dude, i remeber those were the days, Sheetz came and then WAWA gas was so cheap.

All I have in this world is my Balls and my Word and I'm not breaking em for no one,- Tony MontanaTeam 6gc 2005
91 but thats only because its the highest you can get here... without going to california speedway to fill up for 5.00 a gallon

I know I feel sorry for some of you guys in the states, what is it now 2.29? damn........

Go leafs go
It's like 2.21 here. I hate it.. because I have no money.. putting $5 in gets like what.. 2 gallons? That's nothing for me. My school is 30 miles away.

the cheapest one... which is usually 85-87, depending on where you go.

Like Natallie, i cant justify putting anything else in since there is no need to. Plus im cheap!

Its Orville's Celica, i just drive it...
89. but i might start using 93
87, thats what the car is made for, and i dont notice a difference when i put in higher.
I pay about 2.09 per gal for 89 which is what i usually use. They have 103 where im at but i dont need that high. We have lotsa rally/drag in my area but ppl hate rice here. Gas drops down to 1.79 here on occasion. I got 1.59 around christmas time.

i usualy go with 95 and some times 100 but for drag i will use 110 with a new program on the dyno! >wink.gif>
the highest i can find !
i never believe what the pumps say over here
but i hope it's around the 95 area

Life is for living, and you don't get a second chanceTake care now !!

As discussed, I have wet dreams about fuel @ 2.29 a gallon.

I remember when I first filled up the celica, November 2003 bone dry and she wouldent take 20$ haha. In my old 4th gen (sold her saturday) she got great gas millege but with prices now took 30$ or more a tank.

November 2003 1.20ish
March 2005 2.17 cheapest
