Default BAH! My car doesn't run all that smooth on 93...
I don't even want to know what it'll run like on 87.

Tristan is right...why the hell did you spend money on a chip, and dump **** for gas in the tank?

I agree that I will not get the most out from power, but will there be any long term damage?

Default Yes, if you're car can't retard the timing sufficiently, you will
ping, and you will damage the motor. Driving aggressively and driving in hot conditions will exacerbate the issue.
