Well, I don't know what planet you're getting 112 octane gas on (France?),
but using higher octane gas than is required for your engine isn't
harmful. The only harm you'll cause will be to your wallet for the extra
expense. Once you meet the required octane level for your engine,
anything above that is a waste of money. I don't know what setup you've
got going but I doubt you have a GE turbofan jet engine in the back of
your T3. ;)
