Just got my 2015 EB premium, and, what grade of gas should I use for normal (not hard) driving?

If you want the true power then use 93.

As high as you can find. The only time I would throw 87 in there would be if I were road tripping and just hyper-miling.

The car is programmed from the factory to provide more power with 93 octane.

Isn't there an additive I can add to my 91octane to make it 93?

You could mix in something like torco but my tuner recommends against using additives

Be very careful

In the Old West in bygone days, there were many "Snake Oil Salesmen"... Today some of their descendants sell automotive additives of all sorts.:doh: And yes some additives are helpful, but please don't use them in your new Ecoboost. I can think of no faster way to "throw a code". Your car runs best on
93octane and you might not notice performance degraded on 91 or even 87... but do you really want to gamble on additives. :paddle: But since you live in Las Vegas...you might just be a GAMBLER.:lol:

It will also provide better performance with 91 octane.

The difference between 91-93 octane is probably not noticeable unless you're dialed in with a custom tune.
