Default stock ITR octane??

i have a STOCK JDM ITR with Intake and exhaust, and i think the CR is around 11.5:1 correct me if im wrong...but i was wondering whats the highest octane fuel i can run. I can get 118, 112, 110, though my work, just wondering if its worth spending the $$$$?

Default

Honestly. You dont need anything more than what you would put into a normal ITR, go with 92-94. Higher octane will not do anything for your car unless its tuned for it.

91+ of UNLEADED FUEL ONLY.
im pretty sure the 110+ octane fuel you are talking about is leaded race/jet fuel. use 93 octane if its available in your area.

it wont make much of a difference unless you're shooting nitrous or boosted
