I have been drag racing fwd cars since 83 and always have looked or better FE. On EVERY car that used reg fuek, they all slowed down when I put in higher octane. Higher oct burns slower and with out having a motor designed for it, it's not needed. HOWEVER....my SRT4 requires it and when it was bought in Feb I used reg in it....got 26 mpg best at a constant 65 on interstates.....in April I started using 92-93 due to racing season and the FE jumped up to the EPA 31 rating. There was no driving problems with the reg, but power went way up in the seat of the pants area with the switch.
