some people kill me when they just spout off at the mouth and think they know everything. 101 oct is a better burnig fuel. You will not be able to tell a diff. but it is safe to run. Now with a tune it would be a good way to go.

With a stock system your car will advance the timing more which will give you a slight increase in power. Since you are in California and you can only get ****-91 oct then adding 101 will raise your octane and will maximize your stock power potential. Go for it.

When I was filling up at a Sunoco station this weekend (94 octane FTW!!), I noticed that they had 116 octane race fuel as well!
I was so tempted to try it out except that I figured it would be money thrown down the drain as I'm on a stock IX.
Plus, it was something like $6.29 a gallon, and they only took cash - no credit cards, so I couldn't have afforded it anyway!
