I babied it around town for awhile and no detonation/cel/knocking/pinging/etc. I refuse to do the math right now, but that's around 35% 87 and 65% 93. (not counting the bar of 91)

I plan on babying it for awhile and keep filling up with 93...but has anyone experienced knocking with this low of octane?

I'm extremely hesitant to put any kind of fuel additive octane booster in my baby, but if any knowledgeable person can convince me otherwise....(ps, that will take A LOT of convincing)

And just to make me feel better, has anyone else done this??
wtfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff! 2.99 for 87? omg and 3.34 for 93??

dude where i live its like 3.54 for 87 and like 3.78ish for 93

lucky u
