Accidentily put 89 Octane in my lude
Should I pick up Octane booster?

Is it that big of a deal? Im a little nervous and pissed at myself for not paying attention when filling up.

What should i do?

no biggie, just don't expect your car to be ultra fast your ecu will compensate the timing for ya. No need for octane booster.

adding octane booster is not worth it. you car might have to retard the timing a tad. octane boost is only gonna do a little damage to your plugs. you can run 87 octane in your car fine.
