use of higher octane gasoline

Now i'm about to be dissapointed...why is this engineer comparing the
accord with the Altima, isn't the accord suposed to be compared to the
maxima? or is the maxima engine now superior to the accord's?

But by that, it would have to have the correct parameters set in the ECU
for a higher octane, which it doesn't. Otherwise the car would run on 93,
with the knock sensor retarding timing for 87 octane. The VTEC system has
nothing to do with it. Adding more fuel has nothing to do with it.

So the engine was designed for 93 octane.

I agree with the intelligent posters that told you to make use of
"unleaded 87 octane" gasoline. It will save you lots of money during the
time you own the vehicle. Even if higher octane gas might add some extra
horsepower--you will rarely if ever need the extra horsepower unless you
plan to race your vehicle or go over 120 mph on a regular basis. Don't
waste your money on high octane gas.
