    I agree on the 87 octane. I'm on my 5th Spyder (all RTs) and have tried using 91 octane vs 87 octane on each model and found there is absolutely no difference in performance or MPG! we recently had another successful Spyderfever rally and several attendees were hell bent on finding a 91 octane station?? I shared with them my results and they just shrugged me off. so be it.

    Hmmmm..... Oil threads..... Octane threads...... The two sides will NEVER agree. Crazy thing is, both sides are pretty well correct.

    I'm a staunch advocate for 87 oct. ..... however I dis-agree about your view on " performance ", it is a very slight de-crease from 91 oct. to 87 oct. ..... but it would take a DYNO to show it .... On MPG's there is no way to measure it ..... JMHO .... Mike
