Sorry to say, but a multi-bullion dollar industry would not continue to be able to sell WAY overpriced gas if it was "overrated". Now, take out the elements of 92 vs. 94 or which gas station has the "best" octane. On a simple level of if high octane (92 or higher) vs. regular octanes (87) is needed, it is simple logic as well as science as to why it is. I could bore you for days with the science as to how octane is acquired, what it means and what it does and doesn't do. But the fact remains, regardless of what this guy or any other person speculates about knock sensors, if you put 87 in your car regularly, you'll know the difference. To put it on a simple level of understanding...take a look at all the engine builders, car shops, etc that all put race gas in their cars when racing them? Why do they do that? To go from 92 to 100 actually does something...even though they have knock sensors too. It shouldn't be a far stretch of the imagination as to why 87 vs. 92 is a big deal for an everyday car.
