Not enough to notice a difference unless your running power adders/and or have a built engine...

I only put Mobil premium because I had the Chevy dealer put in a new transmission and 3.8 engine. Its a 12 year old car with powertrain warranty.

When you have a built engine that is the difference you will see. With low octane your timing will adjust to keep it from pining and to high an octane when its not needed and you don't get a compete burn. (Though I have seen advertisments for 76 fuels with complete burn technology)
