They have trails and rock crawling. I'm more interested in trailing. I don't need to have dents and scratchs on a brand new Jeep lol

The dealer put a full tank of gas in it when I got it, he left the lot to do it and came back, I didn't bother asking the octane. I assumed it was regular however.
You need to just go ahead and try it. I did it with mine and felt a better throttle response. As what others have said. Whats the worst that can happen

I could show you the tables in HP Tuners. Exactly how much timing is being pulled, when and where.

With your car, you can find out which table you're in (high or low octane) by simply logging it with HP Tuners, no tune required. If you know what to look for (other factors can affect timing too).

Your car may be fine or there may be "issues".

Basically, give me ten minutes with your car and permission to tune it, and we won't be hearing any more complaints about your car's perceived lack of performance.

That's not good. Guess that what happens when your oil pump stops working.
