what type of gas do you use??
 
does anybody have a factory handbook from a honda with a b16 factory equpped?
if so what's the recommended fuel rating? I've always wondered this...

Wouldn't make sense to use super high octane.... b16 isnt super high compression. Turbo = 92+ octane only, so maybe 89-90 on a b16?

I would recommend running a 92+ octane https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif

numbnuts22715 09-21-2004 04:05 PM

I just use regular, but thats just for my crappy 92 hatch.. for the b16 you probly need better gas.. so Id reccomend that.
