Yes, you can run level 2 all the time and it uses 87. However, I found levek 3 on 93 was much better for me and it got 11% better mpg, so paid for the difference in fuel cost.

I'm sorry, but a TB spacer on a port fuel injection is worthless. They can help a carburator but otherwise, a total waste. Use your money to get custom tuned. That is the single best mod, then do the self intake mod or get a CAI.
