The 'fix' is raising the octane in the fuel, which has no hp benefits once the problem is fixed....so are you sure ..from experimental data that using 100 octane will do anything other that deplete your pocket book.
This would be true without a tune, however the OP said he has a high octane tune.

Still not worth the added cost though IMO
