The car has not run so well since I switched to Sunoco 93 octane.

Then switch back to whatever you were using before.

Octane rating is a measure of how slowly the fuel/air mix burns and how resistant it is to self-ignition. Higer octane fuel burns more slowly and is more resistant to self-ignition.
Burning high-octane fuel in an engine that doesn't need it (such as a stock 16-valve USA 928 engine) costs more and gives less power and mileage.

It does not give better HP, but faster runs since you can get to WOT quicker!!
