I think some of it does depend on the engine setup. if it is a modern engine with a decent injection system and knock sensors and variable valve timing etc. higher octane fuel will give a benefit. if the engine has a better burn the ecu will pick this up and account for it. hence why i say my car does feel as though it benefits from it.
thinking about it i have a mate who had an imported EVO 5 and wondered why it really hesitated before the turbo kicked in. it turned out he was running on 95 ron. when he switched to V-power this 'fault' he had me trying to figure out went away and ran perfect from then on.
For me its mainly my mechanical sympathy and thinking i am doing the right thing for the engine :lol

Lord,
Grant me the WD-40 to move those things that are stuck, the Duck tape to fasten those things that are loose, And the wisdom to know the difference.
Amen
