We basically coast our cars on empty then fill w/ around 3-4 gallons on VP109 (101 octane). BIG improvement.

Your ECU needs time to adapt. A couple WOT pulls should be good.

VP109 is oxygenated and is 105 octane (R+M/2). Given that you can't advance the timing or increase compression most of the gain will be from the oxygen content.
