Forced induction cars must use 91 Octane or higher.
I've heard a lot of things regarding octane. I'm not really sure what to believe so i just go with what the book says.

Never heard of that one.
But I do know that running 91 octane in an 87 octane motor is sending more unburned fuel down the exhaust and can clog your cat(s). Saw that one for myself.
