It is better, yes. But to notice and improvement I think is all in the head, it'll be healthier for the engine. But I don't think it is much much better thou, and I burn supreme

It is a myth the vehicles designed to run on 87 do better when run with higher octane. No truth to it at all. I think more important is to get the gas from a good reputable source. This issue gets beat to death on many forums for many vehicles. Bottom line is that stock vehicles should be run with the octane they are designed for. If your vehicle runs better on higher octane it could indicate that there is a problem to be addressed.

I have been tracking every single fill up since I bought my 2012 with zero miles on it. It now has 32,000 miles on it. When plotting the data, one thing is obvious: you need to have several full ups to be sure the MPGs you are seeing is statistically significant. I experimented once with 93 octane while towing my heavy trailer on a long trip. I did not experience any increase in mpg and felt no difference in towing power with the 93 octane.
