motors work with explosions at precise times. higher octanes help these explosions explode at the right time.

but only if the engine is built with that in mind.

if your car was made for regular octane gasoline, putting higher octane gasoline isn't going to do anything. however, if it was made for high octane, and it doesn't get it, it's a) gonna get less gas milage or b) get less horsepower because the computer will sense it and adjust

its not the nitroboost button from fast and furious
