then maybe a sports car isnt for you



Well, isn't THAT a snotty answer. Find me the rule that says "sports cars" have to be fed 93.



small boosted 4's run hotter and faster than big N/A engines. they need the octane to reduce knock at high RPMs. a less aggressive custom fuel map or bigger nozzles may let you get away with daily activity on a performance turbo 4, but then, why bother with a performance turbo 4?
