It limited what you can do with tune to accomodate such poor fuel as 87 on a 12.5:1 motor. Will need to look at knock under different conditions ond evaluate. The best option woild be to run 91 as a minuim.
I also suspect 87 will not only be lower octane but also lower quality in other terms like additives and deposits as well
I do have concerns with running poor fuels through complex modern fuel systems like this with direct injection
Its certianly not someting id recomend people do
