Typically in my area premium is 93 Octane, but I have had a SI tune for 94 Octane, so I need to add an Octane Booster to gain 10 points. I also have a Sprint-Booster installed, which has degraded my MPG.

So I don't think I would be considered a poster boy for MPG, but I do get about 30 MPG; if I keep my foot off the pedal, coast alot, draft behind semi's, and always drive on the down side of hills!

By the way if you have never been in Illinois; hills are hard to find!
