Just remember that higher octane doesn't mean faster....higher octane is harder to ignite. It is used in turbo vehicles because they run at higher temps and the lower octane will ignite prematurely under higher boost, this is called detonation. On a NA vehicle that isn't highly tuned it will provide little performace value.
