From what I heard is that you need to use some kind of race fuel to keep your car bumpin for awhile or you can use premium gas and have it run like **** and die sooner. I never knew that until I talked to a few people. Think it should be posted with the swap info?

huh?
the 3s-gte may be a little more high maintenence than lets say the 5s-fe, but the amount of power you make out of the engine is well worth the repairs. and you can usually expect more things to go wrong with a more complicated engine especially on a turbo setup. As far as having to run race fuel, thats rediculous, you would only run race fuel if you were pushing some high numbers. as far as a stock 3s-gte, there is no reason to ever run race fuel. premium fuel can always help your car run smoother, and I would recommend it on the 3s-gte, but you could probably get by on using some 89 unleaded. but personally I always tend to use 93. Who told you that you had to run race fuel? did they perhaps say that you needed race fuel if you have an extensive mod list? -------------------- [img]http://photos-081.facebook.com/n6/081/n15913038_30266081_3342.jpg[/img]
