Running 100 without being tuned for it is just going to be a waste of your money.

While I do believe the car will run best as intended on 93-94 octane
(hence why all the other states with 93 refer to Cali Premium (91) as "piss water", anything above that without a tune for higher octane will just put a bigger hole in your wallet.

Running 100 octane will most likely result in a less efficient burn, and you will see no benefit without tuning for it.
