It depends on the compression ration. There is a dynamic compression ratio, which is the compression ration while the engine is running. SO the more boost pressure (anc CFM) you run the higher you dynamic compression goes up and the higher the compression the higher octane fuel you will need to use. I'm thinking that if you put the boost low enough you can get away with running lower octane. I need a civic, refer to the bottom of the post.

Won't that throw the tune off if you run 93 for the tune and something else everyday?
