The only way for us here (older Pcar owners/EURO type I & II) to pass the annual inspection is to fill up with it. Read very expansive but cheaper than having your car confiscated if it doesn't pass. DME indeed seems to adjust fine, however the temp is a problem. Inspection center is only 20km away and I have to stop the car 3x of fear of overheating. Temp goes up crazy high and it does it almost instantly even from a cold start.
Seriously, I'd be very surprised if any Boxster would survive more than an afternoon on the Gasohol
And... 110 at 7 bucks is BS, you should report this to your BB or call the police man. To give you an idea, some of the 'medium' stuff out there e.g. in the 103.5 range cost roughly $USD22/gal (Total/ELF). Might be slightly cheaper on the US mainland but not that much. Certainly not 7 bucks lolll Good god....
