i doubt it will ruin it, but you're wasting your money. the higher octane is only beneficial for higher compression motors. if you had a supercharger it would make a difference, but on a stock motor, you're just wasting money. if you're not pinging or knocking on hard accelerations, you're not getting any precombustion, so no need for higher octane gas.
