Add octane booster from the parts store?
Drive nice until you refill?

Not too much difference in the two though.

You will be fine, 1 octane point won't matter. Now if you ran 87 or 89, then you would have to carefully run that out of the tank, fill it back up with 93 and do the fuse pull.

It's cold and it's gonna get colder.

You can use a full tank of 89 octane and have no issues at all.

It's good if you have a local place to get 93, I normally fill up at shell with 92

Station to station will vary a few octane, reset the fuel map just in case (fuse pull). I've reset mine twice in a few months... it makes a difference.

I had mine dyno tuned for 93 octane also. I asked the turner what would happen if I was on a trip and could only find 91 or less octane. He told me the engine would be ok to run it but not to do a lot of WOT driving.

You have knock sensors for a reason lol you honestly think with one handle at most gas stations you get true 93? Majority of folks use the ole 87 and you come along push the 93 go go juice button and out come 87 for 2 seconds..........
