^ Really has nothing to do with racing.. In general you are reducing the engine lifespan by running 87 on a High Compression Honda engine. Read this for more info: http://www.mdxers.org/forums/68-fuel-octane-mileage-etc/126946-premium-vs-regular.html

I am a Mechanical Engineer..
That thread was entirely dumbed down to more simple understandable words, It wasn´t made to be a debate thread...
The whole engineering lingo makes no sense to most people who read this stuff on the forums, Anyone that knows what "Fuel-Ratio" and "Stoichiometric" is wont even use Regular on a High Compression engine.

^ It is Recommended on the 3G.. Acura wont even post HP numbers for Regular Gas use. The HP Specs on the data sheet is using PREMIUM ONLY so its bound to lose power on Regular for sure.
