Since the TiiCo engine is equipped with a knock sensor, you can run any
grade gas that you want.  Run 89 or lower and it'll sense impending knock
and retard the timing.  You'll won't get knock, but your power and mileage
will suffer.  Run 94 (or just for kicks try some octane booster), still no
knock, power improves, mileage improves.  Don't know where the break even is
on mileage savings vs. octane cost.
