fwiw...
yup, avgas kills sensors, since the environmental concerns for planes is overridden by the need to keep them in the air 
also something most ppl seem to forget is that avgas is not designed for high speed motors.. yes it has higher octane, but it also has a slower burn rate, designed for plane engines which do lower revs than your car will.. so at high engine speeds, you will need much more advance to get a complete burn or you are not getting as much out of it as you would with normal 98 octane...
so yes, higher octane, and cos you can/need to run more advance it is thought to be better, but may not be the best way to get that 1% extra...
anyhoo, my 2c...
