It does state in the owners manual (for a 5sfe) "use 91 octane for best performance" or something like that, you can use 87 with no problems, but the computer will retard the timing more to prevent detonaton, which will hurt performance. The stock compression on the 7a is quite a bit lower than the 5s, so it wouldn't make as much difference (if any)
