2014 Mazda 6 - 58k miles Been using regular 87 octane since I got the car. Yesterday I was distracted when pumping gas and filled with 91. Seems peppier. Is it just in my head?? Anyone notice a difference in performance when using a higher octane gas? Any downside if I continue using 91?

I have a great exhaust and muffler shop down the street from where I live. I have used it for the last two Miata's I've had. When I upgraded the exhaust and installed a high flow cat, it yielded more power, response, and better gas mileage. It only cost me $250 for the cat, exhaust, and tips. I...

Hello friends of the community I come to their aid by the following: My car is a mazda 626 GC turbo, and I noticed that the dashboard is an icon of turbo, but that part does not give the signal to feed it. I found out and the only solution is to have the map of circuits built in order to know...
