Why don't people trust what the engineers/designers of Toyota say to put in your car by what they posted in the car manual?

Don’t you think that they have already designed the car specifically for what they put in the manual?

You don’t think they have already done all the research that we are unable to do; that’s why there is always debates about it.

Look in your manual and find the cheapest gas station around and put that octane in there and save some money.

But if your bound and determined to waste money on gas for a non performance car that you should not be revving and zooming around town like you would in a 350Z then:
go to the gas station you like best (Chevron, Amoco/BP. Shell, CITGO, etc.) and waste the extra money on your reliable name brand gas that you believe in for the octane rated gas that is in your manual.

Just don’t waste it on higher octane because someone else has already researched it and is telling you in your manual what to put in your car.

And of course I am not speaking to anyone who has made engine mods…

oook!!

well as what we discussed b4 i believe you guys down there starts with 89 octane on the other hand we start on 87.. 89 is good no higher needed although higher octane extra boost again requires advance timing..company made theyre car to run atleast on 87 octane gas...if you ask me the cleaner the gas the better and i can tell you this 87 aint clean at all..that when you get all your deposit inside ur engine bro.. and shorten the life or ur fuel filter as well.....there is a noticeble diff between 87 to 89 but 89 - 94 requires advance timing to benefit for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
