I may have missed it, but is this thing suposed to run on regular unleaded? Seeing as the engine is 12.5:1 compressions ratio, I expect premium gas to be the bare minimum you can run without sacrificing power and mpg.

Still..you think after 20 years later, you would think these newer engines are supposed to be more power efficient, especially when the SR20DE engine had like 30MPG on the freaken god dang Sentra!
Not disagreeing with anything you said, just pointing out the SR20DE is a 9.5:1 compression which is an important factor to remember as well.
