shell V power 91 is probably the best engineered fuel. I also like sunoco 94, but those are hard to find these days.

shell 91 is the best for the lack of ethenol...most of those big gas companies get their gas from the exact same place though so it's all the same lol

All I think when you hit 89, 91 and up to 94 there is no ethenol in the gas.
I am hitting Petro Can right now as the one I go to was a Sunoco so they still offer the 94.

shell 91 gave me best fuel economy. i switched to petro 94 because of the 7 cents off the liter i get with the citi mastercard.

What's better? Shell V-Power 91 or PC's 94? I thought the lack of ethanol in Shell was better?

Didn't notice much different with the 94 at Sunoco/Petro, I'm using 91 from anywhere.

you won't notice a difference unless you're boosted and tuning for higher octane. Use Vpower 91

What do you guys think of Ultramar gas? There's one right beside my school's campus, I don't prefer it but sometimes I go there out of necessity. It's a lot cheaper but I heard their fuel is pretty shite.

Vpower has 0% ethanol and is nitrogen enriched to clean the engine. I don't think pc 91 has that. PC is still a tier 1 gas station though.

Ultramar is not a Top Tier gas station. Get what you pay for i guess.
