    I always used 93 until I dropped major pulley size then had to use 93+ octane booster (that was in my 05). I did run 87 ONCE in my 07 and I got a misfire code plug 3 I went to clear the code and tried to start my car and it wouldnt. So I ended up changing them that night at autozone!!! lol. Im not saying the 87 did it.But I hadent had a problem but also ran 93 with 10% ethonl in it sooooo not sure if it was the gas or just needed new plugs!!! But if I was you I would run 93 as much as I could.
