the hp that our 4-bangers produce is directly proportional to the octane that we put in em.

For example, a normal gsr needs premium gas, say 92 octane. if you were to put 110 octane in your gsr though, you'd pick up roughly 18hp.

octane rating of gas in car - recomended octane = hp gain

You WILL NOT BENEFIT FROM HIGHER OCTANE. UNLESS you severly advance your ignition timing.

That is THE ONLY time it will help.
