YES. you only need hi-octane for high compression motors.
Yes.
Right now you're wasting A LOT of money on premium gas. I tried a tank of premium in my base rsx once, and couldn't tell any difference.
but doesn't the type S and non type S have the same engine? Ones just tuned better?
Correct. But tuned differently is more correct than tuned better. There are some components that are different, and the ecu is set differently to take advantage of the components.
