Interesting. I wish there was a place like this in SJ-area. I have to mix 100 with 91, but thankfully 100 octane is nearby at Foxworth and Almaden.

The 76 station in Saratoga sells 100 octane.

14395 Big Basin Way, Saratoga, CA 95070

There is a Torco fuel dealer in Santa cruz too.

Has anybody experienced any noticeable differences when running 100 octane? I've mixed 100 with my 91 a few times and done comparisons versus straight 91 but I don't feel like there's much of a difference.

My theory is that the ECU has to re-learn how to use 100 octane and therefore must go through at least an entire tank of "race gas" before it adjusts the timing accordingly to gain any benefits.

Unfortunately, I'm not that rich.

^ 100 oct will give you about 15-20whp if you are tuned for 100 oct

Just putting it in makes your car run cooler of you're not tuned for it
