It would be foolish to run 110 "leaded" race fuel in your Cayman without major ECU and compression changes. The key word there is "leaded" not unleaded. Any spark would ignite that fuel and it will fire much hotter than the 93 octane. Therefore, ECU use it or not the chamber will become hotter than designed and no telling what terrible things might happen.

Anyway, we can buy 100 or 110 octane at Speedway/Sunoco here in Sarasota. However, state law does not allow you to pump this gas directly into your car. It can only be pumped into fuel containers.
