Will 87 octane regular unlead cause engine to sputter like a motorcycle?

Octane booster won't raise your octane rating enough.

Way too high of an octane for a n/a motor.

Well, I added 2 bottles of octane booster by NOS and then went to the gas station to fill up 5 gallons of 91 octane...and then drove the car around the city for 30 miles...and sure enough it did the trick...no more pinging noise. At around 12 or 15 miles...it stopped pinging. Thanks you guys.
