Wait, I though you still had to run premium with the URD kit.

You do have to still run premium gas after the URD or 7th injector kit.

That's what I thought. I was a little confused by what MTL said

If you do get one, be sure its the Black, 2nd gen charger, not the silver one

Ditto!!! If it wasn;t for this, I'd have bought one a long tima ago. We're at like ~$2.50/gal for premium right now!!!!!

What the $$ difference in 87 and 93 in Cali? I figured it to be about 175$ a year difference putting 20K miles on the yota in a year.

Another thing to consider (I sure did before plunking down the cash on the SC)
is that this type of money investment in your rig is a one way street. Meaning
that it will not add $3000-$4000 of re-sale value to your truck. So if you are
even thinking about selling your rig in the next couple of years then don't do
it, keep the money in your pocket.

Since my truck is fairly new and I don't plan on selling it any time soon I decided
to go for it. It sure does make it more fun to drive.
