not available in Cali
all dohc vtec motors need 91+ due to high compression. you COULD USE 87 in a pinch. if you're running a knock sensor and proper ecu map (oem is fine), the ecu will retard timing to help prevent detonation.

not true. technically you need to run the lowest octane possible without detonation. running an octane too high will rob power, performance, and create deposits in the engine.
run whatever the manufacturer reccomends.
