If you have brand new 02s you can sometimes get away with it. But older 02s that are half clogged anyways seem to foul very quickly. I had a set that fouled in 25 minutes of driving. Its also exacerbated by the fact that when you use 110 octane on your normal tune you will usually be running MUCH richer so the mixture doesnt burn completely. This is especially true at idle and part throttle.
So just stick to 100 octane unleaded. I know they do have 110 unleaded but I havent been able to find a plce locally to buy it.
