Default Octane questions...

I'm getting ready to order Hondata and wanted info. on what fuel I should be using.
The car is an '01 ITR that now sports 9.0-1 Compression. I plan on boosting around 15-17psi at the track with tuned Hondata, 720cc injectors, 3-Bar MAP etc...
The car will be mainly ran at the track only, and occassional weekends out and about. Is it posssible to tune it on 93 octane pump gas or will I need to run something higher at the track? Luckily I have access to 93, 100, and 104 ocatanes right down the street from my house
Thanks for any info.
Mark

The tuners at AEBS recommend using race gas for any Honda application over 300-320 horses and at that amount of PSI you should be well over that mark. Also, when you do run the race gas you need to remember that it's really hard on the o2 sensor.

I would talk to your tuner. I'm going to see how much I can get out of pump gas (93) before I move up to race gas (112) for the track.
