Default Got a general question about pump gas?.......

Hey, I was just wondering what I should do. Looking to get a good civic and maybe boosted. Aroudn here the highest pump gas is 91 and not any c16 or e85 around. Closest is probably 100 miles or more atleast to get more than 91.

thanks

Then you get it tuned by someone who knows how to do it properly.

Honestly, then you really should not be looking to make 400hp.
If your plan is to drop the compression way down and give it a hack tune, youre going to make a whole lot less power as well as a whole lot less reliable.

Find yourself a good tuner - you may have to travel

or what if I bought a car that was tuned on 93? Would it be that bad to run 91?
