No . I don't collect that information unless I personally test something. This is simply collected morning coffee chat between a few friends much smarter then me. One is an actual "ROCKET ENGINEER" working in Vandenburg (but that's all I can tell you about him LOL
) If you do the research and understand what the components are in a CAT and what outside elements effect it and can deteriorate them. Or......... wait until you get an annoying PO421.
The other thing you might want to try out...
Do a WOT pass to REDLINE, shut the engine off without changing the throttle position . Safely pull to the side of the road and pull any spark plug and have a look at what your cherished fuel is doing to a spark plug.

DATA these days regarding anything. Unless the source is already shown to be reliable and the testing results verified by an ASE or independent certification facility what do you really have? As I have often said anyone can find what they thinks and can appear to be empirical information to support anything on the internet. Just as the example I use about FLAT EARTH believers.
I am pretty exhausted with this... I understand you want to use it and good luck. I hope you post both e good and future should something happen the bad choice in using that fuel.
I might suggest that if you do get a ECU program to be able to access and DATA log PIDS you can see just how many area's that fuel effects. And very few in the positive without some changes made.

So I can summarize what you said "Listen to what I say, but don't believe what you hear"
