What would happen?

What would happen if when i go to use my nitrous and i have like 1/2 tank of 87 and fill it up with 93 and then use it would it hurt the engine any or should it be alright. When i say go to use it like on a dyno pull or at the track.

the geekz0r (11:04:16 PM): so 2nd pulls like 1st in the 5speed, 3rd is like 2nd, etc.
PortugeeTex (11:04:26 PM): so whats 1st like then?
the geekz0r (11:04:49 PM): 1st is like hitting a cheeta in the ass with a tazer
PortugeeTex (11:04:53 PM): lmfao

You are averaging 90 octane half and half.. I would not use it until you get better gas depending on detonation..
