Default Ethanol in Pump Gas?

Im not sure about the States, but in Canada We got Huskey/Mohawk which is "mother natures gas station" Anyway, the gas contains Ethanol and is the only pump gas here with 92 octane, rest is 91 So my question, is it safe to run that gas in a built All motor/turbo car for the higher octane or is the ethanol gonna screw it?

In CA we have 76 gas. It's the only gas you can get without MTBE, instead they use ethanol. It's the only gas I run.
