No 89 is not dangerous. No power loss either. Your mileage may vary - but my SVT does fine on 89. I might change to 91 if I were running fully loaded, with wide open throttle. There's some variation from one engine to another, and the 91 rating listed in the Owner's Manual is conservative. The SVT does not have noticeably high compression ratio.

Also, octane requirement decreases in cold weather.
