Default hp difference between 91 and 93 octane tunes?

I was just wondering how much HP difference there would be between a 91 and 93 octane tune on a N/A engine. Could it be worth a tenth at the track? It sucks being in AZ without 93 octane.

My guess is that's a bit optomistic... I can't feelthe 30 rwhpin the seat of my pants from 87 custom to 93 custom tune if that's a reasonable value.
