Why do you think you need 100 octane gas?

it will hurt your performance...if you are not tuned for 100 octane it will just kill your a/f...if you want to get gains out of it you need to get a afc neo or another fuel adjuster..otherwise its a pretty dumb idea...well ignorant i guess

Most cars will run fine with 100 octane gas - some cars (especially computer controlled late models) do not.

You will get better mileage with 100 octane, plus it is more pure and will clean out carbon deposits from your motor if you run it hard.

Keep in mind that in order to get maximum power with 100 octane, you will need to remap the timing (advanced) to use all the extra energy that fuel can provide.
