If it is leaded, you fill foul the cats and O2's (leaded fuel was meant for non-computer-controlled vehicles).
On another note, why do you need 110 octane. This fuel burns pretty slowly and may actually slow you down UNLESS you were to advance ignition timing enough to need it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
