A higher octane in an engine rated for a lower octane shouldn't negatively impact its performance. Lower octane in a higher octane / compression engine is what will have negative effects. Curious as to how you saw a positive difference going back to 87.

That was always my understanding as well. But it never seemed to run right with the Trufuel. It wouldn't get up to full RPM's and would bog down easier. Ran like a top on 87. I assumed it didn't have enough compression to fully burn the higher octane Trufuel, but I really don't know.
