Octane booster ?

I own a bone stock 89 supra turbo that i just purchased last week, when i went to the gas station - i put 93 octane in my tank - i figured ok the car has been sitting awhile,plus being a sports car better gas will help clean out my " engine " a lil bit and maybe slight performance ?????, and help my car in essense come back to life...

i hear if i want to upgrade my car - i should run 93 or higher + octane booster...

heres what i plan to do with the car over the next 6 monthes -

INTAKE - FULL EXHAUST ( whole 9 yards ) - upgrade INTERCOOLER - IGNITION ( plugs, wires etc. ) - BRAKES ( rotors pads lines etc. ) - LOWERING SPRINGS ( temporary ) - i guess im looking for about 30 - 50 HP with these parts ????????

let me know about the possible HP gain PLZ thanks...

BUT BACK ON SUBJECT - with those upgrades do i really need to run OCTANE BOOSTER ?????????? - im new to tuning cars - I FINALLY HAVE ONE TO TUNE LOL

comment or discuss - im really looking to learn a few tips and tricks about TUNING CARS

thanks everyone...
