BoilerUpXFire, you really should read more closely. you said "As stated before, I do not think you are going to get any noticeable issues with a few tank fulls, but after 50K miles of a 87 grade, I can guarantee the guts of your motor will not look as good as mine " right?

Where did I say I was going to put 87 octane in my car? I said 89 octane, I believe...

Does this sentence look or sound familiar? "Every mechanic I have ever spoken to has told me to abide by the recommendation from the manufacturer, they have hundreds of thousands of hours in torture testing every part of the automobile and make this recommendation for a reason." It is from your post (number 17). You mentioned recommendation in it, oh my, I said recommended..... Come on......

Do me a favor, leave me out of your rants. If your going to jump someone's a$$ do it for the right reasons. Now will you let me put whatever the hell I want to put in my gas tank? If not, then pay for it and I'll let you (as long as its 91 octane or higher).....
