They only sell 87 89 91 and 100. Anyone know if there 91 is any better than any other gas? Is the 91 produced by VP fuels? Or, is it just their 100 octane "Street Blaze"?

Not to get off topic but there's VP in San Leandro as well. 91, 93, 100 octane available. Is it safe to run 93 even if I'm tuned for 91 octane pump gas?

i dont know. In my owners manual 91+ is what is listed for the WRX. STI is 93+, 91 minimum.

Stock tune can adapt up to 93, maybe??!??!

friend of mine carlos (in vallejo) runs leaded 100 in his white TT supra. Turns the car into a rocket ship. While i was on Td04 2.0 made me look like i was standing still.
