How much did BC charge you for the new springs? I havent put mine on yet but I wanna get really low and think I might actually need shorter springs and was wondering how I would go about this and cost.

I got some new insurance, Mercury, thanks to RealAle420. Also reapplied a Racingline Decal on my upper windshield next to the Bluebatmobile Overlays Decal. Looked around for an OEM Leather interior, decent price $480.

You can run regular in the 3.5, many people here do, the ECU will adjust timing accordingly to avoid knocking. For me the difference of $4 everytime I fill up isn't a big deal. Plus $4.15 for premium? Thats cheap! I filled mine up last week at $4.59 for 93.

premium is only recommended, not required. you can run on 87, you just wont be as powerful

That's not something I'm willing to do, lose power, so this is a moot point.

i wouldn't either, but if someone is that concerned about it, they can easily run a lower octane. I like having close to 270 to the wheels whenever I need it.

Well 87 here in GA is about $3.87 right now, with 93 running 4.25 or 4.15 with 10 cents of at Kroger. LOL~

I've always gotten considerably worse mileage from Kroger gas. No matter if it's 87 in my Altima or 93 in my old A4 it was noticeably less than QuikTrip.
