But your car can't run 100% octane and your car doesn't have 2 fuel pumps.

Not much different than flashing your car with different octane and performance tunes.

Nothing new. The Heritage era SVT Lightning had two fuel pumps.

Pffft.
My old '89 Ford truck with a 5.0 liter can run 100 octane and it has 3 fuel pumps.
Have to run at least 89 octane or it will ping.

no such thing as 100% octane fuel. there is 100 octane fuel though, there is also 105 octane.

and by the way, 91 octane and 100 octane are NOT two different fuels, they are the same fuel with different octane ratings.

two different fuels would be gasoline and ethanol.

yes i get it, there is 100 octane fuel, but there is NO 100% octane fuel. on top of that 91 and 100 octane are both GASOLINE, thus they are the SAME fuel just different octane levels.
