Range on your car

ah ok in that gace my 07 and i run it on regular fuel and i get same states i posted above that are really good.
i don't understand from what i read they didn't change anything in the tuning or construction of the engine they just realized it would run fine on Regular in 2011 so changed it to regular then am i thinking wrong i though ti read and was told this once
i have no notice in different between grades of 87-93 and i have used both to test this therapy before

Edmunds or who ever it was the wrote that revue have no idea what the reason is bu they had to wright something so they realized the sticker on the fuel door changed so they through in some fancy words for it.
But they didn't change calibrations the only thing that would do in my mind is
increas the knock sensor chances of how it works.
and i notice nothing.
and from what i have heard others say they knowtice nothing either.
ONly cars i have ever had where a difference between year and engine being changed for fuel is
my cadillacs the 99 sts and the 2000 sts
they changed in 2000 to roller calms which allowed regular fuel to be used.
Unless i hear something about how Lexus did this or changed something major to their engine then it's B.S
did the hp change between years ? did the torge change between years ? for the ES i don't think so
same gearing also

That's right. Assuming you use Premium. You said you use regular, so your produced HP is 268 at most. When they say engine was tuned for regular 87, they most likely mean no physical change to the engine itself but remapping fuel injection because lower octane fuel burns faster. Not engineer, but I heard using regular when recommend is premium - not good.

i don't believe and unless someone comes in with perfect clear charts of how it is i don't get it and don't buy that fact that using 87 is causing me to loose 4 HP
i think this is turning into and only has one road to go down what we sometime call OIL wars on who has the best oil who believes all the crap about how Synthetic once you go one way you can't go back to dyno and all that stuff just in a different topic on fuel.

This is hard for me to buy

wow first question are you driving like a race car driver and on local roads stop and go ?
but seriously.
HOw much carbon do you have built up on your top end ? i don't know but id be looking into a fuel injection if not a full top end cleaning also air filter replacment oil change and what ever els might work if i where getting 100 miles to half a tank
but seriously.
