I just got a low milage engine swapped in...and I was wondering wut octane level I should use....I'm not sure if it's a 5sfe or a 3sfe all I know is it's JDM....and I read that using regular octane levels makes the engine preform better. Is that true?

You know... if you posted a pic like people have been asking, it would be A LOT easier for us to tell you what motor you have in your car... You keep saying that it's a JDM motor, but how do you know? Just because the mechanic told you? If you want some serious help in trying to figure this out, go down to Walmart, but a cheap disposable camera, and take some quick shots. Otherwise, here's my other suggestion if you'd rather help yourself. Do a search for various motors on the Web and find the pictures... then see which one resembles the motor that was installed...
