eh, I dont think it would have that BIG of an impact. and honda doesn recommend using that low octain on their VTEC engines. at least use 91.

Octane makes a big differance in preformance engines... stick with 93 and see if it feels any better to you.

Yeah.. GS-R should use premium gas only.. lower octane gas can be used, but wit loss of performance.

you car hates you, never use anything lower then 93,


also do a tune up, whens the last time u did a valve adjustment? change plugs and plug wires?

150 can take care of all of that.

does ur VTEC even kick in? Sometimes my bro's GSR VTEC dont kick in. He just found out that his selinoid is dirty...so he had to change out something in the selinoid. Check that out too....
