There is no doubt the future will create technologies that will work AND be economically feasible. Not today though.

Race gas works great in turbocharged engines as well. My 280Z has a foctory 7.4:1 compression rato and running at 16psi boost really appreciates 103 octane. Modern turbo cars can compensate for octane, and get more power from higher octane fuel.
