add some octane booster?

Nothing should happen to your engine. It just won't have the bit of performance you are use to. You can add some octane booster to it and that should help. Pretty much just fill up on the usual gas next time around.

i'll give you 550
|
600 over here
|
700 man... haha jk dude
just add some octane booster if you feel like to... otherwise, just put back 91 next tank... or if u wish... do some oil change and flushing haha... just to make your heart feel better... |
Nothing will happen, you guys are mean. You will notice on the Big twin cam VTEC's, that they dont run as welll with reg. But your engine is fine. Octane boost will give you your power back for this tank, but it wont hurt anything if you dont.
|
it might knock
|
You may notice some pre-ignition with the lower octane gas. This would only happen if your engine's compression ratio was high enough, though. I have no clue what a JDM GSR's compression ratio is and what the recommended grade of fule is for it.

Just drive your car around easy until you fill up. Don't go hitting redline or anything.
Your engine is equipped with a knock sensor which will retard the ignition if it detects knocking. (That is if knock is hooked up)...... Either way, you'll be fine, just don't push the car. |
800 over here...lol..
don't worry about it should be fine... |
Just dont' rev it out. Take it easy and dump some octane boost in. You have a knock sensor so you dont' have to worry too much.
|
thanks for the info... i will just wait it out i guess, thank you all
here some BUB on me:smoker: LOL |
does the same apply wit a b16a2 motor ??
