I ran 14 psi on 90 octane, without meth, on 9.5:1 CR. Never had a problem.

I'm currently at 10-12 psi on the same 90 octane, without meth, on 10:1 CR. And I'm planning to try 14-15 psi. I wish we had 93 octane here, but 90 is the best we have.

I would also recommend upping the cr a bit. Mine 370 runs 9.75:1 with 15psi, 20* wot timing on 93oct E10 in humid Florida summers. I don't have a huge cam to bleed off dynamic compression either.
