    Everyone spends their money differently. I use the regular gas but probably waste money on other things. This is from Wikipedia -

    The power output of an engine depends on the energy content of its fuel, and this bears no simple relationship to the octane rating. A common myth amongst petrol consumers is that adding a higher octane fuel to a vehicle's engine will increase its performance and/or lessen its fuel consumption; this is false—engines perform best when using fuel with the octane rating they were designed for and any increase in performance by using a fuel with a different octane rating is minimal or even imaginary.

    I have seen Dyno runs where higher octane gas improved HP, but they were on cars which had a much more complicated fuel system.

    Now, can we get back to a decent oil thread?
