maybe a stupid question..but why not

I know the manual for my 190 2.6 says to put in atleast 91 octane fuel...someone asked me why not put in 87 octane and use an octane booster like something one can buy from the autozone..?

i've been putting in 93 octane fuel...its been hovering around 2.97-3.01 where I get it versus 3.29 everywhere else..so i'm not really complaining

just a thought.
