If your detonating badly right now than it will help.If not than you will likely lose power.

it wont do you a whole lot of good unless you were tuned with that octane. higher octane doesnt always mean more power.

Also i think 100 octane is non leaded and ok for your 02 and 112 c16 c18 is leaded and will ruin your 02 sensor..
