Not advisable to run on 89 but if you want your engine to perform better go a little higher

funny there was no instruction on what type of gas should be used for the KW kit but with all the boost applications I've seen the higher octane is a must.

nope you'll have to put premium. don't worry about the gauges. if you can't see em, they are useless and you really don't need em. if you want to look baller though, they are cool.

KW says to run 91 or higher only.

Power is apparent after 2500RPM. Once it kicks in, it's on all the way up to 6500RPM. I had to check my gauge to make sure I shifted on time as it reaches redline much much faster! After shifting up, the boost is still there and continues to pull. No bogging down at 4000+RPM.

Actually I believe the instructions mention the need for 91 octane once it's on. I think I read that somewhere in there.
