Re: Gasoline Brands...

I'm from Maryland and usually do mid-grade (NA ZC for now, turbo kit coming). I am more concerned with price of the gas than I am brand/kind.

As a side note, I have noticed that a lot of Sunoco's in Pennsylvania have 94 octane available in addition to 87, 91, and 93. Just a heads up. later,

dude.. octane rating is octane rating.. that ---- is defined by the percentage of pureity that the crude is refined too the government sets those at the refinery.. the only additives they add are those ones like techron that clean injectors.. they dont add that bullshit octane boost stuff.. and then post up that the 87 is now 93

I only buy BP/amocco premium. I try to stay away from exxon or any other stations unless I'm desperate.

Re: Gasoline Brands...

For the people that think gas is gas, pay attention to your MPG. When I get shitty Raceway gas (always 91) I only get about 31 MPG. When I use Wawa's gas I get about 38 MPG. Never can seem to find a Chevron around. When you watch your mileage and keep track of things you will learn which gas stations to avoid. I had a site like bobtheoilguys site but instead of oil they compare gasoline brands and MPG but I cant find it....
