Re: i filled up w/ wrong gas.

You don't always have to run higher octane gas. If you are running very little boost, conservative timing ect you can use 87 with no problem.

Your other options are to:
Drain the tank
use octane booster
drive around a lot til it is gone

exactly what he said... dont boost, if you are still n/a for now... go drive your car around alot and waste some gas.
