first of all.. Why would someone laugh @ your question? Infact your question is a very good one...

Yes you can use High-Octane fuel in it but it's not going to make a lot of difference in the performance... If you ask me I would say it's waste of money.

If you have an old car and the car knocks a lot.. then you should use high octane fuel to reduce knocking... but if your car is running fine... Use regular fuel and save money.

Now days I use 87 Octane... I used to get 93 and 94 octane and pay extra... but it was complete waste of money.

Mixing ... is not really a good thing but if the tank is empty... You can add high octane fuel or vice versa.

and I'm not sure where you can get high octane fuel in Islamabad, Pakistan...
