Octane Issue, Need Advice!

[Akasen]

Ok so I just under a half tank of premium 93 octane gas in my car when my buddie asked me if he could borrow my car to take a girl out on a date. I said ok, and after he got back, he handed me the keys and said "I even put 20 bucks of gas in your car". When I asked him what kind of gas he said regular....

Now I know its bad to mix gas, and even worse on performance, and forced induction cars such as ours. But I don't know know if I should just syphon the gas.... run it out, and put premium.... or dump some octane booster in the tank.

Any input would be helpful!!! Thanks guys.

I'm sure while he had it he already did floor it... I'm also running stage 2... how bad is this?

If you have stage 2 i would try my best to avoid aggressive driving and immediatel put in an octane booster. the .3 increase in octane level might make a differance, or atleast enough to avoid possible knock. or toss in a half gallon of toulene, even 1/2 a gallon might hurt your injectors, pump, fuel lines etc. in the end, having cheap gas in a stage 2 RL isnt good!

is the mixing of 87 and 93 in itself bad for the car???

no, if u dont want to use toulene or an octane booster that would be the next best and safest to do.

mix in the 93 and dont do any aggresive driving! Let the fuel light come on then go ahead and fill it with 93.
