91 (or the highest you can get at the everyday pump) will be just fine.

no real need for 100 octane unless you are boosting or very high compression.

if you just have a stock motor it will just run hotter and not really put out any more hp... (and it costs a crap load)


save your gas money and get exhaust or something instead

Yes you can. Will it do anything? Nope ;p

I ran something like 104 or 110 years ago with a stock B16 and the only difference was you could smell it burning Tongue

to answer your question... yes you can... but why?

like sexy said you only need a higher octane if you need higher detination protection.

You could advance your timing to get a small benefit from the higher octane but it's not really worth it.
