Yes, but your engine will cut back on power. The computer is designed to monitor the octane level and perform accordingly.

Super unleaded fuel won't damage the engine. The engine doesn't need super unleaded so all you're doing is wasting money to buy more expensive fuel.

Can you put supreme unleaded after you put regular unleaded in your car?

Yes In a modern car changing from regular to premium is no problem It may have been costing you power and fuel mileage to run regular, but if your car does not need premium it is a waste of money. On older cars running regular may damage the engine, but we are talking cars built in the 1980s or older.
