93 octane and advancing timing

if i bump my timing up to 10* will i be ok still running 93 octane?

mine ran fine for over 4 years...once tried 12* but it didn't seem as good as 10*

noticed a bit quicker rev and a slight SOTP boost

yeah ive heard that advancing it 10-12 will help out a good bit but ive always thought that 12 would be a little to much, thanks for the advice!!
