The Tacoma with the BRZE 4.0 gains like 6hp it's the most of any vehicle I know of.

Maybe that's true among vehicles that specify 87 octane, but if you put regular in something like a WRX you're giving up a lot more than 6hp. The computer will detect knock and back the timing advance way off.

Car and driver claims they got 20 more Hp out of the 3.5 Ecoboost with 93 octane
quote:
On 93 octane fuel, the truck can run from naught to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds, which is fast considering the truck weighs 5594-pounds. When Car & Driver went from 93 octane premium to the 87 octane cheap stuff, the Ford F-150 lost 20 horsepower going from 380 horsepower on 93 to 360 horsepower on 87.
The drop in power made a substantial difference according to the testers and could be felt at the test track. Felt or not, the drop in power didn’t make a huge difference in performance with the Ford F-150 0-60 mph time dropping only a few tenths to 5.9-seconds to 60 mph. The quarter-mile time on 87 octane dropped by half a second to 14.5 seconds, and the trap speed dropped four mph.
