So here in colorado these are my choices, 85,87,91 octane. Which fuel would my 7 be happiest with, i assume 91 but some vehicles around here have taken damage running that fuel. BTW never thought that was true until I saw a chrysler engine hurt itself royally on 91, owners manual said not to run it but some people don't listen. Looked in the manual for my ride but saw nothing about what should be ran in it.

Sure it would, but you would probably annihilate the motor. You know, that boggles my mind right now, what would happen if somebody did that? 6gazillion rwhp!!!!!!
