I always see some people buying super and always using "octane booster" then i ask myself why not just use premium gas.

The thing is, most cars can be used with Super gas, so i dont see any problem in using Super jus as Aaron said.

I was wondering if my SiR civic could use Super (since i use premium) and was told by a few persons that these cars use Super NORMAL

i use super..no problems (DC2R)

owner's manual says 91 RON as aaron said

there's no point to buying those 'octane boosters' etc anyway

^^ B18CR ( requires 91 RON ) ...

so b16A could use super REAL NORMAL!

i was told it was 16 degrees - 18 degrees, but i rather not play "fass" and put it on 16 without confirming from a few persons.

Would the same apply to a b16a? Cause I noticed that said b18c

Yes bai.

. If u want, you could /should dl a copy of the civic service manual. It's floating around the net. Make sure it has reference to a 99-00 si in there (b16a)
