Default 110 octane!

Well I stopped to fill up with gas at a gas station by my job that I usually don't fill up at and they had 110 octane fuel for 3.00 a gallon. I run my car with 93 alway but(oh oh) would this have any negative with using it? My car has the usual hmt setup w/hf mani to wrx turbo 1st gen dsm bov, dsm smic, catless 2.5 exhaust, vortech 12:1 fmu, and oh yeah the fish tank check valves!

That's cheap for 110. Out here it's $4.49 a gallon. The only negative effect it would have is the lead. It will ---- your o2 sensor in the ***. I'm sure it has negative effects on other things as well. You probably don't need that high of an octane rating.
