Agreed ... the higher octane can be harsh especially with the ethanol in it now. I ended up having to replace 2 injectors in my 91 Legacy Sport once they started adding ethanol (old/worn injectors didn't like it). Unless you have 10:1 CR or higher I wouldn't recommend anything other than 87. There is also a controversy whether it's better to run 87 or 91 with forced induction. I'm not even going to touch that.
