Thanks everyone! . Loving this vehicle so far.
It took me burning half a tank of fuel to figure out my dealer put 87 octane in the tank! I thought it was running rather funky. When I topped off the tank with 91, I finally figured out out. Picked up a bottle of octane booster to get me through this tank. Runs much better now!
Already planning some upgrades!

It's a damn epidemic of dealers not knowing the this car takes 91 octane. FFS, it's written in the manual, on the fuel door and it's a high compression engine... Does it take a god damn picture for them to get it...

Go easy on it with the 87 still in the tank and just burn it by doing the break-in procedure. Once that's done, you know what to do!
