The Octane Boost is nice, but it's an expensive way to get very little in the way of results.
While your Aero loves 93 octane, it will still run OK on 87 or 89. It won't deliver the same performance, but it will be OK. The ECU wil "adapt down" to keep things safe. You can run 91 octane all the time with no worries and little difference in performance. Many places, 91 octane IS premium, and you probably won't really feel any difference between 91 and 93, unless you are really pushing hard all the time. Even then, you'd probably need a stopwatch to tell for sure.
