Say if i was to go with stage 1 cams would i need to always run 93 octane??I know when you have alot of timing and high compreson you need to run 93 but just having cams would a person need to run 93?

Well odds are you'll take the car and get it tuned with the new cams. Right? IF so then odds are you'll have them put in soem more timing.

as long as the timing isn't high, it won't matter.
