I run 93 octane on my GIAC chip and Shrick 268 cams. So you'll be fine. I also recommend the http://www.GIACUSA.com Chip. Leave the exhaust the stock size and get a straight through or free'er flowing mffler. Don't buy an intake with out a Heat shield. With out cams 200 at the crank would be tough. At the wheels is measured after all the drivetrain loss which I hear is around 14%
Someone correct me please
