Doubtful. Yamaha golf carts have a low compression engine (about 8:1 compression) and the 87 octane of regular fuel is sufficient to prevent pre-ignition. Using fuel with a higher octane than is required does not have any benefits.

I have had a few mowers, weed eaters and blowers that had the fuel lines inside the gas tank deteriorate due to ethanol even though they were supposed to be compatible. It's non ethanol in any small engine and my boat at all times.
