Chevron regular. My 01 T5a runs fine on this, but I really think the grade is more dependant on driving style. I do a fuel check on every fill up. Not the trip computer, but how many miles divided by the actual fill up required. I consistantly hit 26 to 27 for my commute and style. When I filled with the premium, I actually get less MPG. Performance for me is not a factor in my driving style, but when I hit the pedel with regular she performs to my expectations. If I was more into performance, perhaps I'd notice the difference between regular and premium. I'm not the person to do that.
