850 gasoline type 850

Too many posts... You are correct, the N/A engine specifies 91 octane because of the 10:1 compression. The turbo, on the other hand can live with 89 Octane, just don't run at full boost.

None of the engines will last with 87 octane/regular because there are no cleaners added. You will notice a lot of engines that have burned exhaust valves are that way because of cheap gasoline.
