Better gas....more power?! WOW!

I have a 99 Maxima SE and have used 87 gas since I got it because i am poor college student and second because i'm an idiot. But I started using 89 (mostly from Citgo) and it seems like a whole new car!! MOre power, torque....just "flows" and drives better? Am I just crazy? Will 91/93 blow my mind? What are you experiences?

I have always bought premium, just better for the car in general. Idk if it'll "blow your mind" but you might feel a little bit of a difference.

Just go for the premium. It's only like $3 more per tank over regular.
