Can you explain to me how bad gas causes that?  Isn't that a problem with the fuel pump assembly?

if it's the fuel pump assembly, it should happen when i use any brand of gas; so far i have only had Chevron, Petrocan (few times), Husky / Mohawk (also few times), and 76 (after i leave the race track in seattle). Only happens when i use Husky / Mohawk, Chevron and others will not happen till at least under 1/4 tank.

diff brand gas has diff additive, ecu will pick up the "diff" and do all the necessarily adjustment; maybe i need some special "tuning" in order to use mohawk / husky lol (sorry, i think it's my stock ECU doesn't like the diff of their additives, but i dun see how much diff it is compares to any other Honda's)...

It's really strange, I still have no clue of how your car does that on diff gas.  Do you have an aftermarket ECU?  Even if diff additives, how does high speed cornering or 1/3 tank full change anythi ...

not only on my Civic, but also on some friend's Subaru Impreza; usually experience at high speed cornering with less than 1/2 gas (one 2002 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS even experienced problem with 2/3 gas, car was less than 20k back then); dun ask me how that could happen but apparently there is sth there

I am running stock ECU, maybe i need better mapping than what honda tuned for my engine lol...

still remember Shell used to have "that" additive (forgot what it was) and that could cause damage to your fuel pump? it's chemical of course it has a diff...
