I was always under the impression that the higher the octane the harder it is to ignite. Therefore turbo vehicles are required to use it to prevent detonation. But don't quote me on that. As far as filling your tank with octane boost....only way to find out is to try it. Let us all know what happens...I'd guess you will never get the gas ignited and it'll just turn over.  But then again I am not an ignition fuel specialist.
