93 has higher octane but

without the oxyginates in the 92, wouldnt that be better.

Depends- What motor are we talking about? an NA rotary has no need for anything over 89 (even 87 is ok) but for a TURBO motor higher is better the oxygenates in the 93 will effect MPG but the 93 will provide better Knock resistance
