Lower FE than 87? Or lower FE per cost?

Looking at Wikipedia for Fuel injection etc, it looks to be fairly safe since the engine would compensate (according to Fuel Injection). As for belts and such (of which I don't know much about), I don't imagine anything really would change, its all very static.

I seem to be getting some great numbers from this gas though, and the performance is clearly different (albeit still crappy ).
