idk if its true.. but my friend went to a dealer today and one of the sale guyz told her that the gas the car uses is premiun only (93) if this is true it is not a good move considering the rising gas prices.. 93 in mass is almost $4.00 a galllon... crazy **** especially the high cost of living that this state offers.... idk i relly hope its not true :eek:hnoes:

On my Si (2002-2005) it's nice, because you can use regular unleaded :) :thumb:
what is it k20a3 u have there? i might just do that swap on my 7thgen i hear the SI engine is better then the rsx when it comes to turbo because of lower compression ratio

if you are going to turbo pichy - you're looking at premium fuel regardless.
very true... but im not financing another car u know what i saying... got a good price for a k20a3 for 3500.00 from mr.vtec WANG.. he said it will have everything to make it work... so i might just do it... thats without labor.. he said that in the 7thgens its mostly plug and play...after u install the new wiring harness
