okay,

so about 2 days ago i was filling up. i clearly stated supreme but thats besides the point. halfway through i realize the guy Is giving me regular. i have an mkv gti, 08 to be exact. do i have anything o worry about? will this break my turbo? i was reassured all would be fine but i want to make sure.

thanks in advance i realize this may be a dumb question...

Your car will adjust the timing and everything on it's own to account for the lower octane fuel. If you have a tune, I would reset it to stock settings but if your car is stock you'll be fine.

dump some 93 in it to dilute the shitty gas.... better yet, if you can get a hold of unleaded race gas that would be even better.

regardless, your car will jsut run like a turd for this tank... timing pull...exc.

not a big deal

it was like 15 bucks worth of reg and 15 worth of 93 so essentially half and half. cars stock as well.

1/2 and 1/2 should be fine... Id still refill with 93 once down a little.

i was trying to just run all of whats in there out and then fill up with supreme. is that a bad idea?
