Premix few Qs

Hey I am eventually going to run premix in my Tii and wanted to know:
Will running 91 octane + octane booster work with the premix or no octane booster?
How often will I have to change my fuel filter?
How often will I have to clean my injectors?
Does running premix mean I'll have to change anything with my F-con?
Will my exhaust smell even worse than it already does? (Straight pipes)
For some reason my car burns NO oil....I never have to add any until I change to oil. Does this mean its not putting enough oil in the rotor housing?
All I have to do is remove the oil injectors and put bolts in their place along with a aluminum sheet to cover the bottom 2 holes?
Will I have to drain all the oil before doing all this?

I will assume you will be running a streetable 120:1 ratio for this:

Will running 91 octane + octane booster work with the premix or no octane booster?
You can use your octane booster if you wish. I think that stuff is pointless, personally.

How often will I have to change my fuel filter?
Same as you normally would.

How often will I have to clean my injectors?
Same or less than you nromally would.

Does running premix mean I'll have to change anything with my F-con?
Nope

Will my exhaust smell even worse than it already does? (Straight pipes)
Not noticably, no.

For some reason my car burns NO oil....I never have to add any until I change to oil. Does this mean its not putting enough oil in the rotor housing?
Possibly. Depends on your driving habits. Often, fuel dilution of the oiling system will cause the oil level not to change despite oil actually being used... the oil is being used, but is being replaced with gasoline: a good reason fro frequent oil changes.
Might be a good idea to test the functionality of your OMP system.

All I have to do is remove the oil injectors and put bolts in their place along with a aluminum sheet to cover the bottom 2 holes?
Yes.

Will I have to drain all the oil before doing all this?
Nope. You will have to remove the UIM.

only drawbacks are that cats don't like the oil coating them much, if you have a resonator or something to replace the cat with it would save the cat from a premature death but the benefits of premixing are much better than the oil injection system.

just be sure not to put the hammer down until you get that primary oil injector i gave you replaced or switch over to premix.

No gunk in the lines? No sludge in the engine? My dad said that it happens...but sometimes he'll say stuff like that because he doesn't want to see me dismantle my car :P
