I used to live in Denver. The gas is 1-2 pts. lower octane than sea level for all the grades. That's because naturally aspirated cars need less octane at 5000 ft. Your car with turbo has the same octane requirement as at sea level (or close) so DO NOT run the lower octanes (85-87) or you could conceivably hole a piston. Well, you can probably get away with 87 but you definitely don't want to put that 85.5 crap in it. I would run 89 and better.
