I don't get the issue? They source from Shell, Husky and Esso. The 91 has zero ethanol and it's cheap as heck. I don't see a downside.

There isn't. He's just yanking your chain.

I love my supercharged twin. Rotating mass.. Riciprical mass.., whatever, the car is fun as hell.

I hope I move up the list for the ESC fairly quickly. That's about the only boost I'm interested in

Not hating on it. I've driven many flavors including @Andrew025's original C30 blower.

Lots of fun but they all change it just enough that it's a deal breaker for me. I'm super duper picky like that.

It's a weird thing to think that I'm close enough in age to my girlfriend's parents that they could be my siblings, and my parents are old enough to be their parents...

I guess what I'm doing a crummy job of saying is that although the extra torque feels fun, it comes at the price of feeling the extra hardware bolted onto the engine. It literally feels a little bit clunky and heavy.

I just love how zippy and happy the whole thing feels in its stock configuration.
