akirby Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I tried one tank of 93 octane premium and did not notice much of a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgman Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I stopped using premium gas about 10 years ago and never looked back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timf Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Only EcoBoost engines have an advertised benefit (increased horsepower) by using premium gas. The Hybrid engine is not turbo-charged so no benefits should be expected from Premium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Some non-EB engines can take advantage of premium (latest 3.5L and maybe the 3.7L IIRC). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
