i love 100
and so does my MR2.
 with my high compression (among other things) my MR2 really only likes to run well on 100 octane. i can finally get good AFR's, acceptable EGT's, and enough advance to make my powerband smooth and large.  h8 pump gas.-Mike

haha, yeah. it's (sort of) my own fault. high compression and terrible rod:stroke ratio. i think cams and a larger turbo would help out a lot, but i haven't gotten to that point yet due to cost. hoping to get there soon.
 now that it's running well, it's an absolute blast! i've missed it so much these past months. -Mike
