octane is only needed for pre-ignition(dieseling) Running it in a motor that doesn't need high octane will actually give you lower Hp. You want better performance look for fuel with a higher distillation curve.

I usually ran 89 in my r6 and it gave the best performance on the track and in my pocketbook. It was more important to find the right gas station.

Unless your warranty requires premium fuel you're also wasting money on it over regular. Reason being premium fuel stays in the stations tanks longer and loses octane over time.

And, if you can run regular in your engine without knocking, premium fuel has no advantage even if it were fresh.
