WoW.. Your gonna run 10 psi right off the bat... I would be very careful doing that ... make sure you have a perfect tune if you are.. 7.5 psi would proably be a better place to start.. but some times you have to learn the hard way, especially with crappy 91 in the tank. Best of luck.

91 OMFG we can get 102 in england.... i run mine on 99 though. 99 works out at about $8 per gallon whilst 102 oct is $20 per gal.

its premiun where i live.. its 4300 ft above sea level so 91 is all that is needed..

also my car is getting tuned by a professional that runs high nines in a civic.. so 10 psi will be no problem

wait what does the elevation have to do with the available gas. and its actually does more damage to the car by putting a higher octane thans recommended. O well what do i know

not to be rude or anything but.. your wrong..

the higher elevation the less oxegen in the air.. so you dont need as high of octane.. also the air is thinner at higher elevation and is harder on small turbos.. so the car will not make as much power as it would say at sea level..

and putting premium in your car wont hurt anything.. its just a waste unless you need it ofcourse, so when im boosted 91 will be needed especially on 10 psi..

now race gas is a different story, cause you need to be tuned specifically for it or else you can cause some damage, also you cant run a catalytic converter , or an o2 sensor with race gas..

just to clear that up

Um, yes you can run both a cat, and o2 sensor with race gas, it just degrades them faster than non-leaded gas, AND there is unleaded race fuel, that goes to (i think) 106 octane and wont harm either the cat, or o2 sensors

yeah my bad.. the leaded race gas will mess your o2 and cat up.. unleaded race gas is expensive though.. like you can get 104 unleaded for the same price as 112 leaded here..
