spooln · Feb 22, 2003

93 octane gas

Im from MASS and its at EVERY gas station. Where are you from... odd they dont sell 93

T3/T4GSt · Feb 22, 2003

Lots of cities and maybe even states do not sell 93, I think Cali is one that only sells 91. The reason, who knows.

Most of the gas stations around here have 93 octane, and a select few have 94 octane fuel. Sucks that you can't get 91 octane in your area!

im from az

but i cant seem to find anything higher
guess ill keep looking

i dont believe there is anything over 91 octane in the entire state of arizona or california, the reason i dont know either. pobably something stupid like keeping people from modding their cars and running high boost levels.:dunno:

To me California is the most ridiculous state when it comes to emmissions. I guess they think they are better then everyone else. Think abou the millions of dollars that they spend enforcing stupid laws and then the money they make the car makers spend since some cars have to have different parts just for California. Just ridiculous. If they want to reduce smog make the buses and trailers pass the test since they are probably the number one polluted not a minority of car enthusiasts with an open exhaust.

We have 93 octane at every pump and there is also a pump that sells "turbo blue" gas which is 100octane i believe....
Its 2.99 a gallon though.

It has to due with emissions restrictions. Here in PA, a lot of places sell 94 (that's all I run).

just put a bottle of octane booster a local automotive store, itll bump it up to like 92 or 93

we get 93 in WV and you can get 100+ at some stations farther north in the state.

Yeah, it all depends on where you live. I always fill up with 93. 94 is available at some gas stations, but I don't want to put it in, have the ecu get used to it, and then put in 93 and have the car get grumpy.

will it really do that?

You'll be lucky to raise your octane 0.1 points with that booster stuff.

This really isn't appropriate for Help Tech! so thread is being closed.
