Nope. The reason for a higher octane is so you can run more timing. If you are still on the stock stage 2 tune, more octane wouldn't make a difference at all. You will just be paying more.

if it is leaded it will destroy your o2 sensor too.

If you want higher octane, get a methanol injection system, tune for it and in the long run it will be cheaper than buying race fuel.

running higher octane just for the sake of running higher octane is pointless. you won't make more power, you may even LOSE power without tuning. stick with regular 93 or 91 if it's all you have in your area.

higher octane WITHIN reason. it reduces the risk of detonation because it's harder to ignite. using higher octane than you're tuned for is nothing but a waste of money, and is most likely hurting performance more than helping
