tired 87 and 93+, no difference in performance near sea level on an unloaded vehicle, not even a 1/10sec on average and no mph difference in the 1/4 mile when on stock tune, no pinging or knocking on 87 (not heatwave weather etc). If you can feel more power with high octane, I guess. Maybe can notice something on a dyno where they use very high load on the drivetrain to test for power, but I would bet its not even 10hp if there is something there. It also isn't doing anything to clean the intake valves since its direct injection if they are bragging about additives.
I have had several aftermarket and factory turbo/supercharged vehicles so I am aware when high octane is needed, last thing I would want is a melted engine.
