Default Tuned Hondata for 91 Octane... what happens if I run 100 octane?

I had my hondata tuned for 91 octane.

what will be the effect of running 100+ octane at the track?
I don't plan on running more boost, just felt it would make me feel safer. But will it even have an affect?

-thanks

If it was tuned well for 91 octane, stick to 91 octane then. With 100+ octane and the same tune, you may even lose a little power unless you advance your timing a little for the higher octane fuel.
