Subarupusher Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Yes the turbo engines require premium fuel and there probably is some language in the owners manual about risking the warranty if you run regular. You also are supposed to knock your oil changes down from 3500 miles plus to 2500 mile intervals. My experience with the Subaru turbos of the 80s is that the engine would surge if I put regular gas in. Steady high rev output requires premium fuel.
