you can use 87 octane on 9.6:1 Civic, that's the compression on a D16Y8. I run 87 no problem and with advance ignition and cam timing.

When that was done I did it again and the crack head rush of performance came back. Maybe it's because Japan has different fuel (higher RON) than us and the car "knows" this.
I ran that stuff myself, I felt no difference in performance. Gumout is better.

Exchange rate is actually .88, but that is close enough. And usually it goes down in the summer... but with all that's going on away from North America it seems to just go ever higher.

Should also note that they generally run a higher octane in Japan.
