is there gonna be that big of a difference in my turbo hatch with switching from 91 now to 93? Will it run any better?

actually, the most power is made with the lowest octane, if your car doesn't need 93 octane but can run on 87 fine, use 87. lower octane gas have more potential energy stored, but higher octane resist detonation better. in your turbo hatch using 91 octane switching to 93 could give you more power if you retuned your ecu and raised the boost/ messed with the timing a bit.

look into alcohol injection. what it does is u run pump 93 octane gas but when u enter boost it will give u the extra fuel u need. the fuel cell would just add more weight. alcohol injection is in a container like your windsheild washer fluid. go to www.smc.com

getting a good tune and running on 93 will be fine. It is all in the tune. If you go to a good tuner they will tune your car according to the fuel you are going to use, making the max power at the safest level.
