Default Accidentally put 87
Hello so I accidentally put 87 in my turbo b18b1, it's currently on low boost so not making crazy power, it's my daily and I'm concerned if my stupid mistake will damage something. All answers are appreciated.

You will more than likely experience detonation running 87.

Octane booster is horseshit. The only thing that actually adds to the octane rating is a product called, "concentrated race gas."

You should absolutely drain the tank.

Maybe you can syphon the gas out from the cap till it's as empty as you can get it and fill up some 91!

Drive it and keep your foot out of the throttle. No boost, no detonation.

I know it's hard but 200 miles without boost won't kill you.

You don't even have to jack it up lol.

Park that **** on your neighbors lawn while they're at work and let it flow.
