    US Gas Stations for High Octane 93+

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Good Afternoon All,

    Driving down from Toronto to Easton, PA next week. Crayola Factory and Sesame Place trip for the kids.

    Anyways, with my Stage 2+ tune, I obviously want to continue putting in 93+ Octane. I've only been using Ultra 94 here in Toronto since owning my car, let alone doing my tune. Are there any gas stations you guys can recommend that I'm guaranteed at least 93? I remember reading that not all US stations have high octane fuel.

    TIA

    Pretty much the entire eastern seaboard of the US has 93. So Shell, BP, Sonoco, Exxon should all have 93 for you to put in. NY and PA should both have what you need.

    The Gas Buddy app can help you find ones along your route

    ^This. 91 [as the top tier] only really becomes common once you move west of the Mississippi.

    91 is common on the east coast. We just call it "plus"

    Yep, once we quit refining 93 here in Ponca City, OK it made it to where you cant find 93 anywhere around us other than in Texas. Now I just blend 100 octane with our 91 to get 93 octane.

    I prefer shell. Also be mindful as some fuel stations "premium" is only 92 (wawa, Sunoco)

    Never notice a difference between Wawa 92 and Shell 93. But I typically get Shell because the 20 cents off on Tuesdays.

    Q is tuned so it's 93 or wait until the next station

    Some sunoco stations in PA have 94. Like $0.20/gallon more than 93.

    Yep. 93 is everywhere in St Louis....but drive west 50 miles and 91 is all you see.

    East coast is easy for 93. Never had an issue.

    I have a refinery right in my backyard, and have several patients of mine that work there.
    Summer blend 93 is top tier here in my area for certain.

    The only stations I've ever seen carry 92 as top tier are GoMart and Sam's Club.
    I had to use GoMart once in my wife's Q3, and I've had one tank of Sam's 92 in my SQ.

    That's not my norm however.
    It's nearly always Shell or Exxon 93 for me.
