I think that if people know that there is a difference of 8 HP (along with some small difference in MPG) between regular and premium fuel on the Tau V8, people can figure out themselves which fuel they want to use. There is no need for additional hyperbole on the subject.
Using subjective evaluation terms such as "undetectable" is not helpful. The facts are that the certified HP for the 2013 Genesis 5.0 Tau V8 is that it delivers 421 HP @ 6400 RPM with regular fuel, and 429 HP @ 6400 RPM with premium fuel. Very similar differences exist for other Tau versions and model years. Those are the facts Jack. As I clearly stated, it is up to each person as to whether the extra HP is worth the extra cost of premium, but the extra HP is real.
Never once said otherwise and yes all 8 hp such as in Sear Craftsman lawnmower power are in fact real, no argument there.
The rest of you post is a mix of ancient mythology based on old engine designs and out-of-date consumer information, especially if the manufacturer specifically says it run on either fuel and gets more horsepower with premium.
Lets see, written by Scientific American in 2007 which means all the 2009 Genisis buyers will have ancient outdated cars in less than 2 years according to you.
If you want to argue that the increased HP is not worth the cost of premium fuel, that is fine, but please stick to the published HP numbers for each fuel. Personally, I do not think the extra horsepower is worth the extra cost, which is why I purchased a V6, but some people may think otherwise.
Which is what my post was entirely about until you made it out to something completely different. You would do extremely well and prosper as a lawyer you know.
You don't need to repeat numbers that I already posted (8 HP difference for 2012). I also don't think you need to post information about the difference in price between regular and premium, as most people are smart enough to figure that out also (which varies by location anyway). And finally, you may be surprised, but most on this forum can do the math.
A well-designed HVAC system will provide increased filter surface area to compensate for using low allergen filter types that restrict airflow. This can be done by having multiple air returns, spec'ing a larger filter for a single air return, or both.Interesting thing with the HVAC system... i had mine replaced a few years ago and had the filter replaced with a 4" paper filter. Basically they make different grades of filters that will filter down to smaller microns. If you have allergies then you would want the highest filteration rate filter possible... though the performance of the blower would be reduced = more money but better health. using a filter that isnt as strict would result in more airflow and less $$$ spent (on filter and energy). I think they call it the merv griffin rating or something
They both work and its based upon user needs.

Ethanol is mandated for air pollution reasons (aside from the political pressure applied by corn growing states). You are not going to find it in a many large metropolitan areas, and is supposedly only to be used by engines that can't handle ethanol (not just for automobile engines).
First you say there is no extra HP, and then you admit that there is 7 more HP with premium gas. Just because you don't notice it, doesn't mean the extra HP is not there.
I read it (and many others like it). Most of that info is outdated (to due technology enhancements) or only applies to "some" new engines.
