Thanks for explaining that tig. I was reading an article about this the other day because I was in an argument with a co-worker. He was telling me he had to run high octane gas in his car even though it was not a turbo or anything... I told him this is what the executives want you to think and your car is designed to run on lower octane gas and you can save like 30 cents a gallon. So I had to find evidence and I did. You also support the evidence I found. Great little write up.
