    How do you guys run the 93 oct program?

    I'm about to get the APR 93 program and was wondering about how convenient it is to run it, do you carry, 100 oct in the trunk or use octane booster, if anyone could tell me how they do it I'd appreciate it.
    Thanks

    then get the 91 program. it's not that much of a difference as far as power for you to go through all the trouble of carrying 100oct or octane booster around for every fill up imo

    93 is available everywhere I live. If it was limited, I would have the 91 program. When I travel to places that don't have it (no too often), I get a bottle of NOS Race Formula and put in the highest available.

    Re: How do you guys run the 93 oct program?

    The octane ratings in Europe are different than in the US. There are two kinds of octane ratings, Research Octane RON (RON) and Motor Octane Number (MON), with the RON being an average of 9-10 octane points higher than the equivalent MON number for a given gasoline. In Europe, they only show the RON rating, but in the US and Canada, we see the average of the two, or the R+M/2 octane rating. So 98 octane gas in Europe is really only 93 octane gas here in the states.

    Still, it sucks that the west coast doesn't have any 93 octane!
