why? why would you go against what they recommend just to save literally nothing. i'm not going to work out the math because it's not worth it right now because you're not going to listen
but with 89 you're getting less mpg. so in the end it literally is the exact same thing except for the fact that you're putting crap gas into your car. :banghead:
either pony the hell up and spend an extra $2 every fill up and end up spending the exact same amount anyway or buy a civic and live your life not understanding how this works.
89=400 miles per tank
91=450 miles per tank
these are just random guesses to help you understand that you're not saving money by cheaping out.

hmmmmm
OK yes I put that wrong it should have been said that some say on 89 you get 1-2 mpg less and 5-10 hp less.
And Estonian numbers are ****ed man they have to use like 5 syllables to say any number over 100

I use 98 Octane religiously....... the thought of using even 91 makes me nauseous...
Although the petrol quality over here in AUS is rubbish...

your octane ratings are different... frin the us.
Aus 98 is US 91, Aus 95 is US 89. (In effect at least In reality the mixes are a bit different but the octane rating is similar.)

And to all those who think that here in Canada its only a $5 diference a fill up... ITS NOT!!! .20-.30 difference in ocatne 87 vs octane 91/94 per LITER x70L =$15-20 every fill up x4/month .... It adds up
