I'm going to have to try that.

The turbo is still an idea, but I'd rather have a choice of when to buy 93 octane. Also, I hear with a turbo you can't just drive to the grocery store and back without waiting for the car to cool down before restart? I dunno, I've never owned a turbo. :-/
You only need to let it cool down if you have had it under heavy load for a decent period of time. That will only be when you have been driving aggressively more then a pull or two or you have been driving on the freeway. Also you can immediately start it nothing wrong with that. You just don't want to turn it off with a blazing hot turbo and let the oil cook in there. Just driving normally a few blocks will cool it down so most of the time depending on where you live and where you drive you don't even have to worry about it.

The great thing about turbos is they are always there and ready to go. No bottles to fill and keep warm.
