But if you do wish to run an advanced timing, higher octane fuel will make maximum use of it, My sons Daihatsu Charade pings under load with standard 92 ron fuel and looses power, run it on premium 95 ron and it has more low down torque, never pings and is smoother to take of on steep starts (manual with carbie).
The car is set to standard timing but is obviously a lot happier on higher octane, and it is alot better option than reducing timing and loosing power.
