Do you mind elaborating on the "not using 89 or 91 octane fuel"Da 6 said:My 2.3 lost alot of low end TQ from straight thru mufflers but being your exhaust is way difrent I can't say. Only way you really can tell is install a cat back and a month later remove it. but yeah cheapest way is weight redux and not using 89 or 91 octane fuel. CAI also works wonders. Anyone have cel problems for fuel trim levels? 2.3 was a rarety but some of us did get them from time to time comonly from going from a 50-75MPH freeway condition to a 3-5mph rush hour traffic in same drive cycle.

Thanks
Da 6 said:alot of people still beleve their non JDM(U.S./canada spec cars) need 89 and 91 octane cause of friends and shell with their V-Power promotions.
*edit* that 2 times we agree!
AzMz3 said:I think he means keep using 87 as the manual states as you will not gain any performance until flashers come out to reprogram the ECU for the high octane. In other words it is just a waste of money to put 89 or 91 octane in an US Mazda3!
