Do we really need the high octane premium gas?

It probably has lead in it which I think will hurt your emissions components; otherwise, it won't damage your engine.

Don't run face fuel unless you have a race program it's not good for your motor either...
#18
If you run a higher octane fuel that your car is not tuned or built for, you see a decrease in performance as it takes more energy to ignite the mixture that would otherwise be power/heat.
In general, you want to run the lowest octane fuel that you can that doesn't cause detonation.
Here in cali we don't have 93 at the pump, 91 is the highest.
