Unless the engine is turbocharged, there are only two times you SHOULD consider using a higher octane petrol:

1) when traveling heavily loaded in mountainous areas and/or...

2) when the petrol along the route (or at destination) are KNOWN to be of lower quality than what you normally use. Effectively, you're mixing Hi+Lo to get average normal octane.
