[QUOTE="Bounce, post: 1452721, member: 257"] I filled up my tuned STi once with 101 pump fuel from a place in NW OKC. 20 years ago it was $6 a gallon (think regular at about $2). If the engine's not tuned for it you won't see a performance issue but may see an issue with deposits building up from the higher octane resisting ignition. Biggest change will be to your wallet. Since the STi was tuned for 93, it won't be able to advance timing enough (EFI) to adapt to the ability of that magic fuel to resist pre-detonation. If I had to leave something set for extended times, I'd do like I did with my Mom's car as she aged, dose the tank with fuel stabelizer and then go top off the tank before parking it. [/QUOTE]
