This has been talked about before. You will find some more info if you do a search. But the basic answer is no, the car is tuned for 87 so you will not get more power with 93.

You will actually get worse performance if you use a higher octane than the car is designed for...

exactly....unless you end up tuning your CPU to require 93 octane, 87 will be just fine
