Default High Compression, Right Gas

I am going to have my car tuned soon and I was told I needed a higher octane then what i have. I am running an LS/VTEC (b18b/b18c) with the compresson about 11.5 to 1. I don't really want to get above a 100 octane form the pump. Is there anything I could do to boost the octane. I heard I could do it with a methanol kit.

Fuel pump- 255lph
Injectors 370cc
Thank you

you should be fine with pump gas and a little octane booster bottle from chevron or any gas station.. 11.5 is safely streetable on pump gas.

pump gas is good to about 12.5 and after 12.5 u wont need more than 100

edit didnt read 91 octane is ur premium. so um yea thats not good but its not bad. i honestly would never run less than 94 i get 93 and mix in 100 so make it a lil better.
