A tune would be much more efficient and cost effective than Over priced, and imo ineffective, "octane booster" at every full up

If the car is tuned for octane booster and you mix it consistently, it might make a difference. Also, if the gas supply is poor and stock tune knocks a lot, there is a chance that booster removes some knock and gets you closer to a stock tune on OK gas. Otherwise, booster purchases help your booster supplier buy car parts.

Just change it back to white and make sure they don't see the diode dynamics mod you have on it which most likely they won't. After that never use other colored lights while driving. You could probably get away with a cool white color that has a slight blue tint on it but nothing like what you have in the picture. Also blue and red is off limits as those colors are siren colors which usually represents a cop. This isn't just cars, you technically can't have blue and red lights on your bike except if the red light is behind the bike. The only exception on red lights is if it's in the back.

A fix it ticket will just get inspected to make sure you fixed it and if you show them your light is white again they'll write it off. Same with running front plates, some people just zip tie it and they write it off and after the owner takes it off again.

I don't see how you could get any better common place pump fuel than 93 octane.

I received a care package today from #86speed! I know places like ft86speedfactory, 86speed and others do free shipping, but not to me in Alaska! When I found out I was going to be in Seattle for an overnight work trip it was the 86 speed guys who answered the phone and were able to get my order together and had it waiting for me at my hotel here in Seattle when I couldn't even get the other guys on the phone. That's some customer service right there! So now I have some goodies for my Series.Yellow for when it arrives Monday!
