    Is there any 93 octane gas in S. Bay?

    Just curious how my S4 would run w/ that instead of 91 octane.

    FWIW I know 100 octane exists at a number of gas stations (at least 2 I know of).

    TIA

    Well as far as race gas goes, I believe there's a 76 off Almaden Expressway that's supposed to sell it.

    FWIW is fairly common, along with YMMV and the laundry list of abbreviations that scale down to the more well known text'ing and internet memes.

    I have NEVER seen 93 in the bay but the 76 on Almaden and foxworthy definately has 100, thats the station I usually fill up at. In fact, I saw a guy filling up a Veyron with 100 a few months ago!
    No time to mod with so many things to fix...

    And you can make 93 by mixing the right percentages of 91 and 100. To get 94, for example, you mix 2 gallons of 91 with 1 gallon of 100. I do this in my turbo Miata -- at current prices it yields 94 for about 4.75/gallon.

    I think there is 93 and 100 and 105 or 110 at Foothill Expy and Magdalena in Los Altos off of 280.
