Should I use higher octane with a vtec?

I have an 06 Honda Civic with a vtec engine. When I first got it, the way it drove made me wonder if it had a performance chip, but I've only been using 87 octane it and I've noticed a drop in the performance since I got it. So i don't know if it actually has a chip in it or if I should be using higher octane

2009 Honda Crv New Ac Compressor clutch not engaging

Here is my story. I have been having problems with my AC all summer. I was told I needed a new compressor and condenser. I purchased a spectro (made in China) compressor and condenser. The compressor was engaging on and off continuously and the car was vibrating so I had to return it after two months. I then bought a used Honda compressor and the clutch was skipping while spinning.

Roughly how much could I get from selling my hybrid car with a dead hybrid battery?

I have a 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid with about 175k miles. I'm the second owner and there's nothing else wrong with it besides the dead hybrid battery. The battery is very expensive to replace and it's honestly just more of a financially smart decision to sell it rather than spending about 2,000 on a new battery. I just want to know what is a decent price to let it go for considering the hybrid battery is dead ultimately making it useless until replaced.
