Default bad gas?

hey people...

just wondering... i am new in this forum and i know nothing about cars...

is that true that the 99.5 Audi 1.8 Turbo is supposed to run with the 93 gas? I heard that the 87 is not good enough since it is a turbo charger? What is your opinion? Is there anything to do?

Yes, look in your owners manual, it will say the minimum octane rating should be 91. 93 gas is for modified ECUs who need the higher quality fuel.
