I guess diesel is out of the question. I don't know about you but where I live there's a whole hell of alot more gas stations carrying high octane gas than diesel.

If your running a rig that needs 93+ octane, youll know where you have to go, and youll make sure you have enough gas left to get there.
Well said. +1
Yeah and in a perfect world that works great but sometimes s**t happens.
if thats your excuse get AAA. or better yet, dont get a supercharger. lol. excuses dont make for progress.
Sometimes you do get on my nerves. Its not an excuse, its called being prepared. Prepared for a situation where you can't get exactly what you need/want. Youdon't think I can run 6-8 psi of boost on 89, I got it.... nuff said.

Where I live, you have to search hard to find a station that doesn't carry diesel.

That'd be nice. Around here it's only the ones right off of highway exits, but I do live like a mile from 2 gas stations that sell diesel so I'd be set anyway. All of them sell at least 91 oct. Gotta go to sunoco for the 94

Wow! How tempers do fly! The only thing I'm aware of is the $5,000 price tag and the fact that you add almost 50% more horsepower...
