on a typical stock efi system that "requires" premium it is best to run what they manufacturar recommends but in cases like urs almost all manufacturors including acura/honda state right in the owners manual that it is ok to temporarily run a lower octane although u will notice a decrease in performance as the car "detunes" itself to compensate. and what dubcac said about the higher octanes is dead on...watch out for leaded it can hurt
