the only honda engines i know of that require premium are the h22, h23, b18c5, b18c1, f20b, MAYBE the b16(i remeber my friend telling me his owners manual said 89 or higher) and the c32(nsx engine). there have been MANY studies that show engines that dont require it do not benifite at all, long term or short term. you burn hotter and get worse gas milage. the reason you need the higher octane is because of your compression. you do not wana ignite early(detonate) that will be severe for long term effect for your engine. belive me, if i could saflty use less, i would. ive read up on this ALOT and know my sources to be valid
