Technically, you have the potential to make the most power using the lowest octane you're engine can handle without knocking (detonation). Octane is purely a measure of a fuel's resistance to knock.

if you have a cat, you wanna stay with unleaded fuel which the highest is 100 octane. the higher octane gas allows for more resistance against detonation which allows you to tune your engine more aggressively, which equals more power if done right.
