it would depend on the brand of gas your using...

ok cool cus i run 91 anyway but my friend bitches that my car doesnt need itI would run the recommended 91 octane for your motor. I mean, if it comes like that from the factory, why question the engineers who designed it?

Shell has been proven to be the best....their 91 octane is actually 91.2 (not that it actaully matters) with QT and Chevron tied for second

Has your friend seen the decal on the cluster that says to run premium only (if you have a VTEC cluster)? Or have you shown him the specs for the motor?

Non vtec motors were deisigned around a 95 RON or 87 octane rating... VTEC motors were designed around a 98 RON or 91 octane rating.
Use what it was designed around...
as for gas.. i recommend either Shell or Cheveron. Tends to keep things running smoother...

there is no reason that you should run anything less than 91...its better for you motor and better for the environment because it burns cleaner...it maybe more expensive but in an 11 gallon tank we're talking less than 2 bucks difference for a full tank of gas

plus i tuned it and at proper A/F ratios... so u want to run good pump gas, i.e. 91
