I am considering buying a BRZ / FR-S (Juke just isn't quite sporty enough - and I hate front wheel drive). I have been reading some interesting threads on it where people in some states cannot even purchase >91 Octane gasoline. The manual recommends 93+. 91 will not void warranty, but some people are saying stuff about the car being a little lethargic. Has anyone put octane booster or racing fuel into their car? I would LOVE to get another 370, but refuse until this issue is identified. Good luck to all of you with with issue.
Honestly, I can not tell ANY difference between 91 and 93 octane as both are available here. I used to use an octane booster in my 94 Firebird Formula when I went to the drag races and I really didn't feel any difference either. I know some pumps in the area carry racing fuel (102-104 octance) but at the prices that they charge, I'll keep using my 91 or 93.
