I found a place up in Washington state that sells 101 octane and others that sell the racing fuels. The 101 is $5 + though.

I'm using 98 RON in my car
 That is the highest Octane rating in Australia up until last month, when Shells introduced 100 RON. I'm gonna try that out later, cause it's still rare. But it has 5% ethanol

JoKeRkId613,
Your in Florida, E-85 (85% ethanol, 15% gasoline) is sold in 2 private locations. E-85 has an octane rating of 100-105 - it's almost race gas and the goverment subsidizes it. Kennedy Space Center 3rd St & Ave C Kennedy Space Center, FL 32815 Hurlburt Field Building 90043 Hurlburt Field, FL 32544 Good luck getting into those facilities though. |

Not true...higher octane gas will make your car run better, it increases fuel economy and increases HP, it help stops pre detonation (knock) in hot engines, burns cleaner and produces less polution, I always run the highest octane I can find....usually 98Ron If I could find 110 Ron in the UK I`d use it. 100Ron is the highest we get here. well i was talking about the orignal poster not needing anything higher then 87 octain in his st. turbo charged engines are different and benefit from higher octain, so i totally agree with you there. Oh sorry.....wrong end of the stick again!!!!!....yes an ST would be pointless running anything that high , it would benifit a little with lower emissions, but thats about it. |
