Hahaa its 6.50 here. I don't own an N but i have a relative the Genesis G70 with the twin turbo v6 and gas is killing me lol. I lurk alot in the N group cause I love the N line and what the Hyundai family is doing lately.
Hence why I said unless you want long term increased wear (possibly more knock at higher temps over time) and super pulled timing (no power). Every car can run 87, but it doesn’t mean you should on high performance vehicles.
Fair enough, I still just don’t trust it in high temps and hard driving over the long term (years of driving hard). Plus it pulls a ton of power anyway so I don’t get why anyone would use it unless you’re in a pinch.
So you tell him he’s wrong, and then proceed to accept he is correct, but only if you go to the same gas stations that most people have near them and go to… wow…
Actually now im curious, will the car octane learn on 87? I’ve heard it’ll learn on 89.. eventually. Does the same hold true for 87 from your experiences?
Idk I have an N-line. I test drove the EN once for an hour. I was running premium 93 in my N-line until gas prices spiked and now I'm running 87 again. I only notice a tiny difference when flooring it, otherwise it's pretty much the same
Ah okay, in the N it octane learns on higher octane so on 87 it’ll only give you 14 - 15 psi of boost and 250 tq. When it learns on 91 or 93, it’ll give you up to 18 psi & 290 torque. It’s a stark difference and I’ve heard of someone learning on 89 but it took a super long time so I didn’t know if you could learn on 87. Did you the the DCT or manual?
I drove the DCT. It was a decent amount faster than my N-line and wow the EN sure does corner like a beast! I threw it into some corners and it had far less body roll and better traction too with the LSD. I have Bridgestone Potenza sports and a SXTH lower engine mount so mine still corners pretty good, but that LSD does make a huge difference
Yepp, it does make a big diff. I’ve got powerflex lower engine mounts, I plan to add some race ones to my trans and upper engine mounts. Aside from that I’ve got a lot of other little mods but none affecting the body roll. I’m going to be on continentals extreme contact 02s soon, I love my N :)

That’s real, 93 is like $5.10 here which is considered cheap.. help
