Increased boost in the calibration as well as a possible more aggressive timing table requires better fuel to prevent pre ignition detonation. That's where the higher octane recommendation comes in. If the vehicle see's any type of knock it pulls timing back and the vehicle makes less power until it doesn't see the knock anymore. Higher octane prevents that from happening.as someone who has no idea about the "performance world". why would premium fuel be required if youre not changing any parts... wouldnt it just be the same decision you make now? lol
Hope that helps..
