Hey '94 GT owner, just wondering what gas rating you guys use. I've been using 87 and I think it's causing my engine to knock, so should I drive it untill its empty and start using 91?

i dont know if it makes my car faster, but i definitly notice a difference in smoothness when i use premium. Up here we have holiday gas stations that have 93 octane, and thats what i use for the most part.
