Default 1JZ + Race gas?

I was just wondering if anyone here has used race gas at the track or otherwise in their 1JZ swapped SC, or na-t, and if so what was the result? What octane? Thanks.

Generally speaking: depends on the tune.

Stock 1JZ, stock boost. Think she can handle it? I will be turning the boost up this week, but will still be stock setup pretty much.

higher octane fuels only help when adding boost or timing, or both...

additional octane will not help unless you really need it...
